Best pickaxe in Cut a Rock

The short answer

• Strongest: Infinity Reign, the last regular pickaxe: a reported 1.8Dc multiplier, for 5.7Sp Money or 10,720 Robux.
• Best next buy: the next pickaxe you can afford. Type your Money below to find it.
• Best Robux buy: the latest pickaxe you would really use. Robux prices rise only about 15% per pickaxe, while the multiplier rises about 7 times.
• Limited pickaxes: not ranked. The store does not list their multipliers.

Every upgrade ranked by value

Value is how much your Power gain grows for each step up in price: the multiplier gain over the previous pickaxe, divided by how many times more Money it costs. Above 1.0, the multiplier grows faster than the price.

36	Iron	×7.3	×8.3*	0.88

Leaving out Iron and Golden, whose scores rest on Iron's disputed price, every step scores between 1.79 and 3.25. So the ranking matters less than it looks: Emerald is the best-value step, but even the weakest one gives you more multiplier than the Money it costs. Buy them in order.

If you spend Robux on one pickaxe, the later the better. An early pickaxe bought with Robux only saves a short grind that Money covers quickly.
