Bayonet Hammer?? Hammer Bayonet???

[MonkeyBoy]

Any ideas on this one? I figured it had a sheath that allowed it to be used as a hammer but still, it is an old one!!

Hope someone can find this on the net. Seabees makes sense. It sure is interesting. Thanks for sharing Kuger.

Certainly someone's idea of a multi purpose tool. For some reason I don't think it's military, but that doesn't mean I even have an idea of what it is.

If that was military issue, I would have heard of it. I used to be a huge WWI - WWII weapons collector and I never heard of anything like that.

It's got a lot of rust but it seem from the pick to be a solid piece, not something welded together.

Just my WAG one of my uncles was a See Bee stationed in RI. it was the only thing I could think of? HH

Very interesting, is it possibly an abalone/clam/oyster diver's tool? Sub

Hi,

Possibly an old 'Floor nail puller / hammer' missing handle covering ??.

I believe it is a crating / un-crating multi tool. The "blade" end is a pry bar (with leverage from the opposite end).

Update / question: the end opposite the blade looks slightly mushroomed (which would support my theory). Am I correct that it looks like it may have been hit with another hammer?

Possibly a tent stake?
