It's a straight peen hammer. It's for splitting bricks and other similar tasks most likely. I used one for rock work when I was in the California Conservation Corps. Blacksmiths and metalworkers also use similar hammers for their duties. Looks like a slightly heavy one. 2-4 pound head on it?

Blacksmith's hot cut. Looks too narrow and sharp to be a brick hammer. A blacksmith holds it on a piece of steel and a second person hits it with a hammer to cut through. They're more for making straight lines or complex cuts that you couldn't do with a hot cut that sits in the anvil.

Op here,
Yeah I thot it looked like a smithing hammer but it was in this 100 year old bag that was shaped like a bowling ball bag with all these masonry tools like trows sanding blocks from the 40s and other shit I can't remember. I actually sharpened the wedge slightly with a flat hand file to remove the dents from its edge. Its so oxidized I can't find a maker's Mark anywhere either.
