At the yelp, Alex chances a glance over his shoulder. The sight of the King and the Jack ganging up on Fil makes his breath catch. Not good, not good. Two bladed weapons and Fil's already made their acquaintance if the blood on his clothes is any indication.
It is quickly decided that the one metal knuckle he's managed to grab is good enough; there are more pressing threats to attend to. As a precautionary measure, he whacks the card's other hand with his pipe not unlike how one would hit a golf ball with a club, then approaches the other party from behind the King with clipped, hurried strides.
Just as the King holds out his axe for another horizontal arc, Alex swings the pipe right into the axe's handle. Thanks to the angle at which the pipe and axe met, the axe goes flying right into the King's front -- with the bladed portion lodged in the card, in fact.

This is a perfect opportunity to steal the axe...
