For over three thousand years, European peasants relied on a single curved blade to do the work of six modern tools. The billhook could prune vineyards, split kindling, build hedgerows, clear forests, shape wood, and even serve as a devastating battlefield weapon. One French manufacturer alone held templates for more than three thousand regional variations. And yet most people today have never heard of it. This video explores the engineering behind the billhook's design, why it outperforms machetes and hatchets, how it was used at Agincourt, and why the most versatile hand tool ever created quietly disappeared from the modern world.
