I bought this Fantastic Ice Scraper in 1982 at a gas station in Wisconsin. It's such a superior scraper that I've been careful to make sure it transferred from disposed-of vehicle to replacement vehicle four times since then. The thin, stiff, but mildly conforming brass blade slides easily between ice and glass and does so without scratching because brass is softer than glass. Oh, yeah, it still costs $2. Important: don't use it to hack at the ice because you may deform the brass blade, after which it won't slide between ice and glass well at all.
