Core Wood is an uncommon type of wood found in Valheim. It’s used primarily for burning to make charcoal but also for some crafting. While core wood is more difficult to gather than regular wood, it’s far less useful.
You can collect core wood even without a Bronze Axe, even though it’s an uncommon wood. This means only Fine Wood trees are too hard to chop down at the beginning of the game. Although, it will be difficult for new players to survive the Black Forest and chop down Pine Trees.
