Found this in a Chinese digging ?

First time out with the 4500 and they say dig everything so i did and found this about foot and a half in the side of a Chinese digging. Looks like a broken pick end similar to the complete picture. Looks like its been beaten by a blacksmith and has that bent looking tip just the same . I wonder if it is Chinese steel? Any thoughts.

Might be an original "crack scratcher".
