I don't think that's an axe, I think it's a (poorly drawn) tip of a tube of YELLOW paint.

- dylan604 3y agothat's creative, and now I see it this way too. if only the "tube" was oriented so the "paint" was more lined up with the mouth. that would make for an awkward yaxe though
- magneticnorth 3y agoI was convinced of this initially, but then I went back, deeper into the rabbit hole of the stackexchange discussion, and someone tracked down this image as clipart attached to the chinese characters for "axe" - so the illustrator did choose this image as specifically being an axe.
- callumprentice 3y agofascinating - thank you!
- lockdown 3y agoI think that's what it's supposed to be. Probably one artist's initial sketch was handed off to another artist who misinterpreted it as an axe and rendered as such
- callumprentice 3y agoThat makes sense.
