But on the other hand, a  lot of cool stuff comes walking through that door! It's just that relatively little of it is sharp or pointy.    
Interesting thoughts regarding this Odd Axe Out... I've never seen a axe-bladed ankus myself. Is such an animal known to exist?     
The axe blade is integral to the shaft, FWIW...

 There are ankus with 'leaf' ends, and there are hybrids that are sometimes claimed as being ankus variants.
Just a thought. Might well be completely wrong.
A shop? Sounds great mate!!!
