Sadly there have been robberies at bakeries in Cyprus, a string of them, and the robber always carried a balTAS, which according to all the dictionaries I've checked is either a meat cleaver or a hatchet:
when I found the news story online, I discovered that baltas was in parentheses, while the text said "large knife," so I guess it wasn't a hatchet, but rather the above. Νews story. Now the words for cutting tools that I know are: σουγιάς, σιγατσάκι, μαχαίρι, λάμα
