Left Axe Kick (左踵落とし hidari kakato otoshi), also simply called Axe Kick, is a move introduced to Jin Kazama in Tekken 4 when Jin made his transition from Mishima Style Fighting Karate to Traditional Karate (although the move still shares its Japanese name with Left Splits Kick), and has also appeared in subsequent Tekken games. It is very similar to Right Axe Kick.

In Tekken 6 and Tekken Tag Tournament 2, the attack will trigger a Bound.

Description[]

Jin takes a step forward then swings his left leg around and over his opponent's head for a chopping kick that will knock them down.

Pressing 1 after the attack will see Jin throw a jab. From Tekken 4 to Tekken 7 this would initiate the Kazama Style 6 Hit Combo but in Tekken 8 this is has become the a string unto itself, with the property of being able to start any other string that begins from 1 through it and the remainder of the Kazama Style 6 Hit Combo being removed.
