KGT 64:  There exists a weapon that might be described as a cross between an ax and a bat'leth. The {'aqleH} has what looks like half a bat'leth at the end of a handle. To manipulate the {'aqleH} is {Qach}.

There's a photo of one on TKW p.124

Some people have called this weapon a pike or pole-ax.
