My mate has just dug this 'lump' up from his garden - it's about 2'6" long and fairly weighty, looks a little like a pick-axe head but has nowhere for a shaft, he lives in a rural area so mebbe some obscure farm implement, any ideas gents?

One of my cycle routes, theres a farm on the left just after the Seaton Ross turn off (Holme on SM to Bubwith) I call it the farm machine graveyard, theres stuff going back must be 50 years just rusting in the middle of fields..

Your mate should get rid as soon as possible. It's a Sorcerers stick that.

I'm sorry, I can't say any more on the subject...

It is a point or flat ended at the end stuck in the bench?

Goes to a point mate, I like the idea of a wrecking bar - I wouldn't want to spend a shift wielding it though :emoticon-0101-sadsm
 
its a rail crowbar
in a past life i was killed by a fellow worker mis-using one
to be honest im not bitter, they were heavy and nigh on murder to use
