Description: | The proximal end of a flake of cream and light grey flint with a straight break which appears to be damage. The right margin is semi-abruptly and abruptly retouched as a side scraper or conversely it is blunting retouch so that the opposite sharp margin can be used as a cutting tool. The proximal end has an abraded and finely flaked platform edge and the dorsal ridges and margins are not parallel so does not look Mesolithic.Bond(2004) illustrates a blunted backed knife on page135,fig.5.121,F54.
