Re: Is open or concealed carry of a axe hatchet or meat cleaver lawful in TX

If the blade is less than 5.5" in length, you should be good to go in Texas.
If it is more than that, I believe you need an LTC to carry it, and it might be dependent on whether or not you are carrying a handgun under the authority of your license. There is a lengthy thread over at texasguntalk.com about a member there named "matefrio" who actually got arrested for carrying a bowie knife and either the charges were eventually dropped or he won the case.
I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice, fyi.
