The Higuarshi threads on RvB have finally started being active. My on again off again on again, Excel Saga loving, FFVII spamming friend CrazyLilviet shared a conversation that answers the question that seems to be harder to notice than I thought. Also, details of Season3 of Higurashi might have been revealed. And there are details in this link about what requirements you'll need for Higurashi Daybreak.

http://rvb.roosterteeth.com/forum/viewTopic.php?id=2210861&page=2

For those too bothered to see the original reason I created this thread:

BILLHOOK.

God, have to explain it every time.

Machete.



Cleaver.


BILLHOOK



That's a billhook.



Alright, I'll stop now.

The shape of the weapon changes quite often depending on the artist.
But I'll agree that could be a billyhook.
But, seriously, what sounds more badass? A bloody cleaver or bloody billyhook?
Srsly.

The design on how its drawn in the anime makes looks as thick as a cleaver, but somewhat longer like a machete. I was always wondering about that the weapon really was. Thanks for the explanation.

However, it sounds cooler to be called an axe murder than the billyhook killer... :)

I read about it, so I knew it was a billhook, but for simplicity's sake I call it a cleaver (and 'cause most people don't know what a billhook is). Not to mention it sounds cooler.

Oh, it's definitely a billhook. Not a billyhook, like the above have been typing. Axe, Machete, Cleaver, such simple words in the world of Higurashi...

Some have been calling it a hatchet too.
But this is the real hatchet


And it's cooler to say cleaver instead of billhook. (:

One more anti-billhook post and I'll probably rage.

Rage as much as you want, it doesn't change the fact that Cleaver sounds way better than Billhook desu.
For instance, remember when Rika called Rena "cleaver girl"? Seriously, "billhook girl" sounds retarded, "cleaver girl" is epic.
Not to mention that

It's a cleaver, nuff said.
Even Rika call her "Cleaver Girl" or "Nata Onna" in Japanese.
Rika calls her so in the last episode of Higurashi
