ok lets start.
first of all start out by going to your pk2 files...
start by right clicking silkroad. then press properties..then press find target
 
after clicking find target. you should see a list of pk2 files.
start by making a back up file of your media.pk2 just make a folder in your desktop and name it whatever u want. then open that folder and press copy on media.pk2 then press paste on your folder.
this should make a second pk2 file. 
now just drag media.pk2 to your desktop.
now open up xvi32
and open media.pk2
 
ok now that you have media.pk2 open
you press  search ->then press replace
ok here are the european weapon codes
(fill out XX with the degree)
item\europe\weapon\axe_XX.bsr AXES

i would put this code on the find bar
then on the replace bar
i would put

then i would click replace all 
after that im done.
i just click save. then close out. put media.pk2 back into silkroad
