thank you for the information. Looks identical, right down to the machined steel and rubber handle.

Some sort of spike driving hammer? As in railroad work, though for that it is a few pounds too light for a spike that big? The octagon shaped head would not lend itself to stonework. the head of a mason's hammer is used to shape brick and stone with the edge like a set chisel.
Idea #2: Could the spike be used to move logs around and the hammer be used to make log rafts? Setting log dogs? Nice hammer. A real head scratcher. |

Here is another image of the head.
Kind of a knife shaped or dagger blade. |
