   It will not scratch the glass, laminated glass has a plastic layer sandwiched between 2 sheets of glass.

Last winter I used an Unger handle (without the channel) to scrape ice from my old car windscreen.

It really scratched the glass!

The knife won't scratch the glass, the razor ones in particular are perfect, I've used the Stanley scaper on my vehicles for 33 years and never had a problem....

of course, if you are like Tosh and just use the handle of a squeegee to do it with, you might, juuust might, scratch your your windscreen  ;D

We used to use Unger scrapers at a valeting company.
Perfectly alright to do.
