Description: | This is a knife with one blunted edge formed on a hinged flake. The ventral face has a clearly defined bulb and no retouch, but there is use wear at both margins. The dorsal face has a left of medial flattened ridge, from which a long flake has been removed to the left margin and this margin has some abrupt retouch, while the right margin, which is translucent, is sharper. The flint is a mottled light to dark grey colour and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on Page 135, Fig 5.121. No 51 which is dated to the Neolithic period.
