✅ SOLVED Some Kind Of Old Axe Head?

[Natman]

Found this at an old house site, house was demolished about 70 years ago...no hole in the middle for a handle, but thin on one side with a slight curve. Some kind of tool but not sure what it could be. Any help appreciated.

Maybe a wedge for splitting smaller pieces of wood.

I thought that too, but it's pretty thin on the cutting edge.

I think you have a broken grub axe.

possibly a broken adze.

There were smaller, thinner wedges for splitting kindling, etc. People would use a hammer with those.
