The Axe Gang (Simplified Chinese: 斧头帮; traditional Chinese: 斧頭幫; pinyin: fǔ tóu bāng; Zhuyin Fuhao: ㄈㄨˇ ㄊㄡˊ ㄅㄤˉ) is a reference to a gang founded in 1921, but is currently used for show in cinema.
Recently a Hatchet Gang is depicted in both seasons of Netflix's Iron Fist.
In the martial-arts film Kung Fu Hustle, the Axe Gang is run in a way very similar to the Italian crime mafia families or perhaps to the major Chinese Triads.
Two crossed axes forming an "X" can be seen as their recognizable logo in Kung Fu Hustle, which many if not all members have tattooed on their bodies somewhere, visible or otherwise.
The gang is shown doing dance moves in Kung Fu Hustle reminiscent of 1950s musicals.
