The War Axe of the Night is in the fifth tier of Axes, being better than the Gold Axe but worse than the Meteor Hamaxe. Like all axes, it is used to harvest Trees, but in the new update, it won't remove placed Wood blocks. It is also a good weapon, hence the "War" in its name. It requires 10 Demonite Bars, but unlike the lower tier axes, it requires no wood at all. If used in the opposite direction of one's movement, you will "moonwalk" (walk backwards).
