Axe

The axe, or ax, is an implement that has been used for millennia to shape, split and cut wood, harvest timber, as a weapon and a ceremonial or heraldic symbol. The axe has many forms and specialized uses but generally consists of an axe head with a handle.

Examples of use

 * American Horror Story: Coven: An axe was the preferred weapon of choice of a serial killer from the 1910s who was appropriately known as "The Axeman". When he wasn't playing saxophone in New Orleans jazz clubs, he was out hacking up young girls with his axe. The Axeman became a malevolent ghostly entity, whose essence haunted the Crescent City into the modern era. After having his affections rejected by the witch known as Fiona Goode, the Axeman sought recompense by breaking into her home at Miss Robichaux's Academy - much to his eternal regret.
