Axe
Locker room scent
An axe is a tool with a heavy blade mounted on a handle, used for chopping wood, felling trees, or splitting logs.
The blade's weight does most of the work.
To axe something is to cut it drastically or eliminate it: The company axed three hundred jobs.
A musician's axe is their instrument, especially a guitar.
To have an axe to grind is to have a personal motive or grievance.
Also spelled ax.
