Description: | Incomplete composite iron knife handle. The handle is oval in cross-section and is completely broken at one end. The other end has an expanded section, triangular when viewed from above and trapezoidal when viewed from the side. This part is also made of iron and is very worn. It looks as is if it was originally two sections and perhaps grasped the iron blade. Decorating the handle are five evenly spaced copper alloy circular bands. Between the bands there was probably once wood or bone however no evidence of this survives. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Daubney, Adam - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
