Description: | Fragment of a corroded iron knife blade with a copper alloy hilt-plate. Hilt-plates are only found on 'Whittle Tang' knives, common throughout the Medieval Period (Late Anglo-Scandinavian to Late Medieval, aproximately 10th to 15th Century). Hilt-plates are relatively common finds, but are not often found in-situ; they are usually seperated from the knife blade.
