Description: | A Neolithic flint knife which has been reused at a later date in the Neolithic as a scraper. The knife edge is formed on the right side of the D shaped flint. It has invasive retouch on both faces. The proximal end was then remodelled as a scraping edge with semi abrupt retouch from the dorsal face. The scraper was probably hafted at the distal end, which has snapped and is unpatinated. The flint is opaque grey and has a mottled white patina.
