  This is the code that DoF uses... it makes cleric have the same restriction that fighters has (what means none). A think that adapted for your needs it would be

  COPY_EXISTING_REGEXP ~ax.*.itm~ ~override~
  	PATCH_IF (SOURCE_SIZE > 0x71)     BEGIN
  		READ_LONG	0x64	       ex_off
  		READ_SHORT	0x68	       glob_ex
  		FOR	(j = 0; j < glob_ex; ++j)	BEGIN
  			READ_SHORT (ex_off + (j * 0x38) + 0x0002) location
  			PATCH_IF location = 1 BEGIN
  			WRITE_BYTE 0x1e (THIS BAND 0b11111111)
  			WRITE_BYTE 0x1f (THIS BAND 0b00001000)
  			SET j = glob_ex
  			END
  		END
  	END

  Here's my take on the code. It should also include custom axes, as well as axes made by Beamdog, as these don't always use the ax prefix:

  COPY_EXISTING_REGEXP GLOB ~^.+\.itm$~ ~override~
  	PATCH_IF (SOURCE_SIZE > 0x71) BEGIN
  		READ_BYTE 0x1f usability2	//second byte of the usability flags, so bits 8 to 15. 
  		READ_BYTE 0x1c category	//Item Type
  
  		PATCH_IF (category = 25) BEGIN //Checks if the item is an axe, which is category 25. Another way of identifying if an item is an axe is by checking the proficiencies, but these should be equivalent
  			WRITE_BYTE 0x1F (usability2 & 0b10111111)  //Rewrites usability2 and sets its BIT 6 to 0
  		END
  	END
  BUT_ONLY_IF_IT_CHANGES

  If you want to allow axes for FMC too, replace 0b10111111 with
  0b00111111, to also set bit 15 (which matches FMC) to 0.
