Help me ID my latest tool find

[toolmaniac]

I picked it up at a flea Market in Amsterdam, over the Christmas holidays. It is something between a screwdriver and a prybar. It is 24 inches long, with a massive wooden handle, and a tapered tip on the other side. Below the handle, there is a stamp that reads "J.H.PEACE&SO..." and the Number 21 with an arrowhead. Any and all suggestions will be highly appreciated!!!!!

Not a whole lot...but looks like they made saws, straight razors, and dinner knives at the least....

The broad arrow mark, of course, denotes that the item is/was UK-government property. So the tool was probably British army/navy originally.

The shape sort of looks like an old English style Cabinet Makers screwdriver.

I have found these covered in paint, they make perfect paint stirrers.
