Slash is a damage type. It's often called “slashing” damage.

Slash, bash, and pierce are are together sometimes called “strike damage.”

Slash damage includes cutting forces like axes, longswords, claws, air blades, and other scratches.
The Gashed condition causes slash damage over time, and itself might be caused by sources of slash damage.
In some cases, slash damage is maximized against an unarmored creature.

Creatures

Creatures and objects that repel physical strikes often have resistance to strike damage, while incorporeal beings like spectres are immune.
Skeletons are infamously vulnerable to bash damage, and they just as often resist pierce and slash damage.
Creatures made of plant material other than wood, such as paper or petals, are likely vulnerable to slash damage.
