Woodsmen's tools (4)
I believe the answer is:
axes
'woodsmen's tools' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for axes that I've seen before include "lines in graph at right angles" , "X, Y scales on graph" , "Chops" , "equipment for lumberjack" , "Terminates" .)
