In a dream, seeing it signifies a person's persistence in what he is doing. The adze may also signify livelihood, provision, and benefits from slaves, children or a wife. The adze is the market inspector who disciplines men and sets right the crooked. The adze may also signify its owner's mouth, or his servant and his slave. It is also said it is a greedy man who draws money to himself, and it is also said it is a sharp-tongued woman. The adze may also be an absent person who arrives, taking a good omen from its name [qadum "adze" resembles qudum "arrival"].
