Description: | 1: A solid copper-alloy complete knife end cap in the shape of a stylised horse's hoof. It is oval in cross-section and curvilinear measuring 17mm in length and 14mm in width. This end cap is decorated with two transverse grooves. One end has a longitudinal groove with small circular indentations near to its edge, which seems to represent a horse shoe. The other end has a slot filled with corroded iron from the tang of the now missing knife.
