Place the point where you want the break to occur; a short tap does the rest. An essential tool when working with block ice instead of ready-made cubes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat to use it for\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuying block ice and dividing it yourself is cheaper and produces denser ice than a regular ice machine. With this pick, you first break a block into slabs and then into pieces that fit in your glass. A single point offers the most control: you can determine exactly where the crack starts, which is useful for spheres and neatly shaped blocks. For breaking ice into larger pieces, use a three-point pick or a hammer instead.

Place the point on the ice and use short taps instead of one hard blow; this makes the block crack where you want it to. After use, dry the point so no meltwater remains on it. Keep the wooden handle out of the dishwasher and away from prolonged contact with water; otherwise, it may swell and the point can become loose.
