In Dark Souls, what is the name of the dragon weapon made from the Gaping Dragon’s tail?

In Dark Souls, the Dragon King Greataxe is the dragon weapon made from the Gaping Dragon’s tail.

Cutting off the Gaping Dragon’s tail during the Depths boss fight produces the Dragon King Greataxe. Like other boss-tail weapons, it is created from a specific severed appendage rather than obtained through an ordinary enemy drop.

The weapon is a large axe with a special attack that releases a shockwave when its skill is used. It requires substantial Strength and is thematically tied to the ancient dragon lineage represented by the Gaping Dragon. The tail-cutting requirement makes the weapon easy to miss if the boss is defeated without targeting its tail.

The Dragon King Greataxe is often confused with the Drake Sword, which comes from the Hellkite Dragon’s tail on the Undead Burg bridge. The Dragon Tooth is a separate weapon associated with Havel, while the Moonlight Greatsword comes from Seath’s tail.
