wedge is a a piece of wood, etc. with one thick and one thin pointed end that you can push into a small space, for example to keep things apart
Some examples of wedges that are used for separating might be a shovel, a knife, an axe, a pick axe, a saw, a needle, scissors, or an ice pick. But wedges can also hold things together as in the case of a staple, push pins, tack, nail, doorstop, or a shim.

doorstopper and a chisel are examples of single wedges. Another example of a double wedge, much thinner than an axe, is a knife. ... Other common examples of wedges include shovels, teeth, some screwdrivers, a saw, a needle, scissors, and ice picks; or wedges that hold things together like staples, push pins, and tacks.
