Leigh Brackett, who was married to Edmond Hamilton, was one of Howard Hawks' favorite screenwriters because she "wrote like a man"--The Big Sleep, Rio Bravo, Hatari, The Long Goodbye, and Star Wars--The Empire Strikes Back

Up here where we still take levelling forests seriously a double edge axe is known as a double bit axe. The double bit itself is sometimes referred vernacularly as a twin bit. Check the glossary at yesteryearstools.com
