Description: | A complete copper-alloy end cap from a knife. Roughly rectangular in shape, measuring 17.4mm in length and 17mm in width. There is a slot one end of this end cap filled with iron from the tang of the missing iron knife. The terminal end has a pair of parallel transverse ridges on either edge and two rounded lobes, each with a circular indentation in their centre. There is a vertical V-shaped groove running down the middle of the end cap, from the terminal end. This end cap would have been a solid projection from the end of the knife handle and is most likely to be 16th century in date. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1500
