How to use/hold a weapon in Gothic 1? - Man in  Camouflage Army Uniform Holding Rifle

I have obtained a weapon in Gothic 1: a pickaxe. However there doesn't seem to be a way to hold it? How do I hold the pickaxe as my weapon?

Gothic 1 is all keyboard-friendly and have run through options but don't get the option to hold weapons. I can see it in the inventory though.

How do you use inventory in Gothic?

Originally posted by Klungo: Action(Ctrl or LMB)+Up(W or Up Arrow) uses items or equips items in your inventory. Action+TurnRight(D or Right Arrow) will do the opposite of the turn left, moving the items to your inventory or to be bought from a merchant.

How do you pick up objects in Gothic?

Ctrl+up is the key to pick up items or speak. But I recommend switching to the alternative settings in the game's options. They are more like Gothic 2. You can also customize the settings if you like.
