Description: | A copper-alloy knife stop of post-medieval date. The stop is sub-rectangular in plan and a squashed hexagonal shape in section. There is a long aperture at one end which extends to the bottom of the stop in an L shape. This aperture is where the tang of the blade would have been attached. There is a smaller rectangular shape at the other end where the end of the tang would have emerged. The stop measures 14.96 mm long, 17.2 mm wide and weighs 8.3 grams. It has a predominantly dark green patina with some wear.
