Description: | A copper-alloy double-edged and tanged knife dating to the late Bronze Age, c. 1100 BC-800BC.The knife is largely complete, with a flat rectangular tang with a circular perforation to take a rivet to attach the knife to a handle. The tang expands to the object's maximum width at the shoulders/base of the blade, when then taper to a point. The blade itself is a flat hexagon in section. The blade is undecorated with the exception of scratches, and the edges are still relatively sharp.
