Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy medieval to post medieval knife handle. The handle is sub-rectangular in shape, with a sub-rectangular section. The handle has been cast in one piece, with a slit 46.65mm long running from one end of the handle which would have accommodated the knife. There is a 1.94mm rivet hole towards the end of the slit. There is no shoulder plate. The other end of the handle is cast in what was probably an acorn shape, however the end of the handle is damaged. The knife handle is probably from a scale-tang knife due to the shape of the fitting. The handle is 78.05mm L x 19.54mm W, is 11.85mm thick and weighs 65.10g.
