Description: | A cast copper-alloy early post medieval knife end cap. The cap is sub-rectangular in plan with a rounded and down-turned terminal. This terminal is decorated with scalloped ridges. The opposite terminal has a vertical slot in the centre which originally would have housed the iron blade. The surface of the cap is heavily abraded. It measures 14.29mm in length, 15.43mm in width, is 11.49mm thick and weighs 10.5g.
End-caps such as this example are dated to the 16th century (Geake, H. 2001 Finds Recording Guide 1.1 unpublished). | Subjects: | Cap | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bolton, Angie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
