-A '''pick''' is a tool used by [[dwarves]] to [[mining|mine]] areas you have designated for mining.  Dwarves without picks cannot mine.  Picks can be made from [[copper]], [[bronze]], [[bismuth bronze]], [[iron]], [[steel]] or [[adamantine]].  The [[material]] used only affects the weight of the pick and the damage it deals when used in combat; mining speed and product are not affected.

-[[Miner]]s can use picks as [[weapon]]s using their mining skill.  Only a dwarf who is set to fight "unarmed" and who is holding a pick at the time he or she is drafted will use it in combat.  Picks are somewhat weaker than actual weapons like spears, but are still very effective in the hands of a skilled miner.
-Picks can be obtained through [[trade]] with [[Dwarves]] or [[Humans]], can be created at a [[Metalsmith's Forge]] by a dwarf with the [[Weaponsmithing]] labor enabled, and are also available on the Fortress Mode embarkation screen.
