Description: | Angled copper-alloy horse hoof knife terminal length 15mm, width 11.5mm, thickness 8mm, weight 5.54g. It has an oval shape, with a slot for an iron tang at the base. The end cap is in the form of a horse-hoof terminal, the 'hoof' being oval in section and curves at a 60 angle. The top of the foot is flat with the exception of two raised elements at the rear, and has a groove representing the frog and at least five circular punch marks for the shoe nail holes. The terminal is similar to an example in: "Material culture in London in an age of transition", Egan, 2005, p. 92, Date 15th - mid 16th century.
