	Axe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The axe (Commonwealth spelling) or ax (American spelling) is an ancient and ubiquitous tool that has been used for millennia to shape, split and cut wood, harvest timber, as a weapon and a ceremonial or heraldic symbol.
		In folklore, stone axes were sometimes believed to be thunderbolts and were used to guard buildings against lightning, as it is said (mythically) that lightning never hits the same place twice (now known to not be true).
		A thrown axe could keep off a hailstorm, sometimes an axe was placed in the crops, with the cutting edge to the skies to protect the harvest against bad weather.

	Beeching Axe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Beeching Axe was an informal name for the British government's attempt in the 1960s to control the spiralling cost of running the British railway system by closing what it considered to be "little-used" and unprofitable railway lines.

	A Gift Axe
		The simple rule with a used axe where you don't know the history is to assume that the handle will probably have been soaked in water to tighten a loose head.
		Lots of axe handles have long wedge slots to facilitate mounting and some people figure that the wedge should extend to the middle of the head to really bind the handle into the "tight spot".
		Most important is that when you hold the axe on a flat surface with the blade and end of handle touching the surface, that it's the centre of the edge curve that touches.
