I need a little help identifying a little hatchet I have. Kind of odd. I am half leaning toward a kitchen tools? Fruit squeezer? Thumb in the dimple on top and press down juicer on bottom? Thought maybe a roofers shingle hatchet with point to poke holes and hatchet to trim but no hammer head. any thoughts?
dont know what it is..... but keep it away from me
Wow, that thing is cool. I'd like to know its intended purpose, as well.
Keep it away from Brian (64longstep), he would make it into a weapon for sure...lol.
I think it may be an ice hatchet for chipping, shaping, and crushing blocks of ice.

And here's a little snip added for posterity!!!
Thank John (wvtools) for the lead....

Interesting site! Who knew there were so many ice-related tools?!
lb, I was shocked also. I'm saving that site link, as I run across stuff like that every now and again. Great reference site!
Very cool! Thanks for the help!!! I also am saving the link to that site. Yet another type of tool to keep my eyes open for. I have seen some of that stuff at yard/estate sales only to pick it up an set it back down.
Fasinating hammer and very interesting site, don't expect find many ice tools over here (Although I do have half a pair of hand forged ice tongs!?) but interesting just the same .Thank you KeyKeeper for the link.

That could make a good Zombie killing axe on a 3' handle... Will you be ready for the Zombie Apocalypse? LOL
