This is NOT an ice tool. It is a marking knife or striking knife. The tool is used by woodworkers to layout marks for precise cuts. The bladed end is better used for cross grain marks where as the awl end is better for scribe marks along the grain. See the below sketch from the internet. Special thanks to Bob Burgess (UK) for alerting me of the proper identification of this tool.
