Default What is this hammer for? (metalworking, maybe)

Definitely a chipping hammer gone to heaven. I prefer the straight chisel
in the upper pic myself.

Looks to me like a badly damaged, well-used(used-up, in fact) chipping
hammer for welding cleanup. Most these days have metal handles welded
to them, but there are a few that still use hickory. That's one head
configuration, there are others.
