Ice pick

An ice pick is a pointed metal tool used to break, pick or chip at ice. The design consists of a sharp metal spike attached to a handle. Though traditionally made out of wood, modern variants may have a plastic or rubber handle to improve safety and grip. Otherwise, the tool's design has been relatively unchanged since its invention.
