Jabob's Pickaxe not regaining charges anymore

My Thunter is using a Jacob Pickaxe. It only looses charges when hitting sandy areas or rock, so very rarely and it is very convenient. Only I noticed recently that the charges are not coming back over time anymore. My axe is at 14 charges since weeks now and hasn't regained a single one, so I'm suspecting a new bug.

Anyone can confirm?

Are you storing it in the bank or a secure container? I've heard that it only regains charges if it's kept in your backpack.

"Though it has but 20 uses, it will regain about one charge every five minutes. Note that it will not replenish charges if you burn it down to 0 charges.[1] "

I don't recall that being the case. I have had my two hammers and pickaxes since they were introduced. I can't believe that in the couple of years that I owned them that I havent burned them all down to zero more than a few times. But if it is something that falls under fixed I am all for it.

Well, again, mine is now stuck at 14 charges, not 0.

It was working fine a while ago, so I believe this is a new bug, unless anyone can confirm that they have a pickaxe that currently regains charges.

Confirmed and verified by me just now on Atlantic.

My Jacob's Pickaxe had 20 charges, and after one successful mining attempt it now shows 19 "Uses Remaining".
It did not regenerate a use after the five minute period.
I tried waiting five minutes both with the pickaxe equipped in hand, and with it just in my main pack.

Never been the case, at least not until this bug.
