Description: | Very plain elegant gently curved two-sided 'straight' blade with pamor, most evident near hilt. Hilt is of rich chestnut-coloured wood, bent at a right angle. The lower part of the hilt probably once had a metal covering, now missing. Quite elaborate and finely worked cup above a very tiny simple ring which separates it from the blade.
