    Measures 15" long. Heavy solid steel stock. Some type of masonry tool or pry bar? Any ideas out there?

      Looks like a caulking chisel but not sure for what. Maybe for packing lead into joints in cast iron pipes ??

      If it was used by a mason it is a tuck pointer for stone or granite work. I have a few but nothing as long as this.

      Irishcollector - I think you hit it on the nose! I just googled caulking chisels and there are several similar ones to this called "Plumbers Caulking Chisel". Thanks! And thank you too fhrjr2 for your response.

      When I saw this & your previous post, I thought, old tools for taking tires off of rims.
