@hunnypooh1 Is there a reason you can't keep it in one of the treasure chests you buy in WA vacation worlds? That's where I put my sims' tomb-raiding supplies when they're home. If you don't have a spare chest lying around, you can purchase one in buydebug. (Bring up the cheats console with crtl-shift-c and enter "testingcheatsenabled true" without quotes, then "buydebug on" without quotes, and click on the ? icon in buy mode. Be sure to turn off cheats when you're done: "buydebug off," then "testingcheatsenabled false.")
It's still a good idea to have the axe around, even if you never use it, because the Chinese tomb where you found it won't spawn another copy, even if one of your sims is in the middle of the relevant quest.
I tried that. I can keep it in the box for the time being, but the moving didn't become unstuck until I took it out and then put it in the family inventory. My problem is this is a permanent issue that the patchers didn't think to fix.
