ice pick
Block chipping tool
An ice pick is a pointed metal tool with a handle, used for chipping or breaking ice into smaller pieces.
Before refrigerators produced ice cubes, ice picks were household essentials for breaking up blocks of ice.
The tool's sharp point also makes it a potential weapon: He was stabbed with an ice pick.
