Strange slick?? - DaveParkis - 09-10-2022
Picked up what I think is a slick. The odd thing is that it has a handle like a shovel. Maker appears to be M. Brainard. Has anyone heard of this maker or type of slick? I know pics will help and I will port pics when I get home. TIA.

Does that make it a crank handle slick?

Pictures might help?

There's no standard shovel handle. Do you mean a split handle like this?

Apologies for the delay in posting pics. It has been so long since I had to use my camera, I couldn't find the cord.
At any rate, here is a pic of the slick and one of the maker's mark.![[Image: uz7nNBpm.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/uz7nNBpm.jpg)

Looks like a bark spud, for de-barking the tree before sawing. They often have D-handles.

You sure it's a woodworking tool? Might be a chisel for removing old floor tiles, linoleum, etc.
RE: Strange slick?? - DaveParkis - 09-12-2022
I am not sure. It was in a carpenter's tool chest.

It's a scraper. I'm 90% sure of that. Plenty available online with an almost exact profile. I think the name is the owner's name. Could have been used to remove old flooring - tiles or wood, or scrape ice or cut tree roots. Often sold as a landscaping tool. Definitely not something intended to be used with a mallet or hammer.
