Description: | A copper alloy knife handle terminal in the form of a model hammer with a striking surface opposite the claw for lifting nails. Incised lines pick out the details of the hammer. A deep groove splits the base to allow for the end of the blade tang. The base has diagonal file marks that would not have been visible when the knife was complete. The object is otherwise well finished. | 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
