Billhook

A billhook or bill hook^[a] is a versatile cutting tool used widely in agriculture and forestry for cutting woody material such as shrubs, small trees and branches. It is distinct from the sickle. It was commonly used in Europe with an important variety of traditional local patterns. Elsewhere, it was also developed locally such as in the Indian subcontinent,^[1] or introduced regionally as in the Americas, South Africa, and Oceania by European settlers.
