Description: | Cast copper alloy razor handle. This takes the form of a finely detailed leg, depicting the knee, calf, sock and sandal. There is also a double grove running around the top. Also at the top of the handle is a slot 7mm deep where the iron razor would have sat (now missing). Above the ankle is a ropework style raised band that rounds around the circumference of the leg, this is most likely the top of the sock. A double linear chevron on the top of the foot may represent detail of the sandal. Very similar handles are recorded on the PAS database: NCL-920745, SOMDOR-4F6FB3, SWYOR-B98CF4, CAM-DDFE12 and WAW-4A9746.
