Description: | Post-medieval copper alloy sheet scale from the proximal end of the handle of a scale-tang knife, trapezoidal with a convex proximal end. There is a central rivet hole and there are traces of engraved oblique linear decoration within a border on the front face. The surface of the iron tang adhers to the reverse. 19mm x 18mm. Thickness 1mm. The form is similar to Read 2001 no. 641, which was dated to the 18th or 19th century. This piece is perhaps earlier. 16th - 17th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
