Since the submission is X.4j(ii) simple, the question may be moot.  Could not find any Or swords or tools (including axes which are cross referenced under Tools-Carpentry) charged with a mullet.  
 
With a 2nd CD for fieldless, this seems clear.

OK. . .

I'm not even sure where to begin with this one.  Client wants to
register (fieldless) On a half-moon knife Or, a mullet of five greater
and five lesser points sable.

Normally a knife is a knife is a sword is a scimitar is a falchion is
a claymore. . . But this isn't even remotely similar in outline.
There are no helpful precedents that I can find so far, all the half
moon knives submitted have been registered more or less without
comment since the defining instance where the extent of the comment
was to note that a knife or ax of this shape was found in German
heraldry in period.

If this is it's 'own thing' then the badge is clear by a long shot,
nothing similar is registered.
