Description: | A short nosed tool of mottled dark brown and dark grey flint with cream flecks. It has been truncated straight and shallowly retouched on the break facet. The convergent lateral margins are semi-abruptly retouched with more abrupt and fine finish. The distal tip is a short slightly oblique abrupt end scraper. The tool may have been reflaked from a plano-convex knife which it resembles in plan. Perhaps this is the result of several resharpenings. Butler(2005) illustrates a plano-convex knife on page 171, fig 72, 5.
