Mjolnir, the Mystical Uru Warhammer Mjolnir, Thor's primary weapon, is the most easily recognized symbol of the thundering hero. Bestowed with a blessed enchantment, this hammer can only be picked up by those who have been proven worthy of its immense power.
Mjolnir is a hammer, and was enchanted by Thor's father, Odin, so that only those the hammer deemed "worthy" are capable of wielding or even lifting it. Stormbreaker is an axe, and although it does not have such a worthiness enchantment, its power is such that a mere mortal attempting to wield it would be driven mad.
Avengers: Infinity War introduced audiences to a brand-new weapon for the God of Thunder: an axe-hammer called Stormbreaker. Stormbreaker replaced Mjolnir upon the hammer's destruction in Thor: Ragnarok, and since Infinity War, it has been his weapon of choice.
For unexplained reasons, Thor remains the only one able to lift the hammer in this universe despite Odin never shown enchanting it with the "worthy" spell. Mjolnir returns in Thor: Love and Thunder (2022) with Jane Foster wielding a reconstructed version of the hammer.
Yes, even Spider-Man has been worthy of holding the hammer of Thor.
Flight: Mjolnir's user is capable of hurling Mjolnir with great force and, by holding onto the leather thong, is capable of flying through the air at tremendous speeds. While in an Earth-like atmosphere, Thor generally flew at roughly the Speed of Sound, roughly 770 miles per hour.
In Infinity War, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) — accompanied by Groot and Rocket — travels to Nidavellir, where a new weapon is forged for him: an ax called Stormbreaker. The weapon comes courtesy of Eitri (Peter Dinklage), and it allows him to return to Earth just in time to help his friends in a battle in Wakanda.
Overall, though, Stormbreaker seems to have the edge over Mjolnir once again. Strong enough to open the Bifrost, reach Eternity, and manipulate storms the same way Mjolnir can, Stormbreaker's powers are greater than that of the mythical hammer.
In Earth-199999, Stormbreaker was constructed by Eitri as a replacement for Mjolnir.
Many viewers have pointed out that Thanos was able to lift Stormbreaker without a problem, but this is because the ax isn't enchanted as Mjolnir is. Others believe Thanos lifted Mjolnir (although briefly) and have even argued that he would be worthy of doing so.

Mjolnir, Thor's primary weapon, is the most easily recognized symbol of the thundering hero. Bestowed with a blessed enchantment, this hammer can only be picked up by those who have been proven worthy of its immense power.
For example, Marvel – which publishes the Thor comics – issued a “Thor's Hammer” trading card in 1991 that states Mjolnir is made of Uru and weighs precisely 42.3 pounds. That's lighter than a herd of 300 billion mice, much less a herd of 300 billion elephants.
Stormbreaker is jealous about Mjölnir's return because the ax is basically a moody teenager. In Thor: Love & Thunder, Chris Hemsworth's Thor comes face to face with somebody he once loved.
Thor can use the axe to change the weather, summon lightning, and use it as a weapon. Just like Mjolnir, Stormbreaker allows Thor to fly at super speeds and summon it with his hand.
Absolutely yes. In fact, there are quite a few misconceptions about Thor's abilities. Even Thor himself was unaware in Marvel's Thor: Ragnarok film.
Odin and Zeus are two of the strongest beings in Marvel Comics, and it's hard to say definitively which one is greater than the other. Either way, the difference between their powers doesn't seem to be significant (if there is one at all). Also, other cosmic figures have regarded them as equals.
Mjollnir, Old Norse Mjöllnir, in Norse mythology, the hammer of the thunder god, Thor, and the symbol of his power.
Mjolnir was forged by a dwarf named Sindri. While he was creating it, Loki, the trickster fire god, disguised himself as a fly and attempted to interfere with Sindri's work by buzzing around him. As a result, Mjolnir's handle was unusually short.
Early in Gylfaginning, High describes the god Thor and his "three special possessions": his hammer Mjölnir, his iron gloves Járngreipr, and his belt Megingjörð.
However, Superman does have the advantage in that he's faster than Thor. Not that Thor is any slow moving slug, it's just there's only one person faster than Supes and that man is the Flash (clearly proved in comic book lore when they race).
When Hela arrived at their location, Thor threw Mjølnir at her, but she managed to block the attack and hold the hammer with her bare hand. Much to Thor's surprise, Hela destroyed Mjølnir.
Norse Mythology
Mjölnir is the hammer of Thor, the Aesir God associated with thunder. Mjölnir is depicted in Norse mythology as one of the most fearsome and powerful weapons in existence, capable of even leveling mountains.
Power scale: 20.
Thor is so powerful that filmmakers are constantly looking for ways to handicap him. In "Ragnarok," they destroyed his hammer.
