Strange symbol in German coat of arms
This is the coat of arms for the German town of Katzweiler.I have looked up lists of typical symbols and cannot find this one.It looks a bit like a scythe with two blades, but I can't find any reference to that sort of tool existing outside of cartoons.

The symbol also appears here, being held by a squirrel:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
