Kaiser blade
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A kaiser blade (also called a ditch bank blade, brush axe or sling blade) is a heavy, hooked, steel blade at the end of a wooden handle usually 3 to 4 feet long, primarily used for cutting small- to medium-sized vegetation. It is double-edged, and both sides are usually kept sharp.
The term "sling blade" came into the pop culture lexicon as the weapon used by Billy Bob Thornton's character in the movie Sling Blade.[citation needed]
