Description: | Heavily corroded iron knife-blade 80.5mm long and 12.00mm wide at the widest point. The thickness before corrosion appears to have been about 4mm. The knife has a straight squared back to the blade, which runs parallel to the cutting edge for about 55mm from the root of the tang, and then curves gently down towards the point. The cutting edge itself is perfectly straight. The tang is not present, nor its point of attachment visible, but seems most likely to have been continuous with the thicker part of the object, i.e. on the side of the squared back to the blade. | Subjects: | iron blade | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
