Description: | A cast copper-alloy knife collar or stop of Post-Medieval date. It is hexagonal in plan and rectangular in section with slightly flattened ends.The object has a central, rectangular transverse groove or slot through which the tang of the knife would have passed and on one face there are rectangular notches at each end either intended to accommodate the blade or handle. It measures 19.45mm in length, 11.22mm in width, 12.84mm in thickness, and 10.92g in weight. This object is similar to other knife stops recorded through the PAS (for example SF-540221, NMS-25B303 or ESS-0CF1C2) and is of probable Post-Medieval date, c.16th-17th century AD, if not slightly earlier. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
