Description: | A cast copper-alloy knife stop of probable Post-Medieval date. It is rectangular in form, pointed oval in cross-section with one flattend end. The object has a central rectangular aperture through which the tang of the knife would have passed, with a rectangular slot at the base into which the blade would have slotted. It measures 16.41mm in length, 18.71mm in width, 10.57mm in thickness, and 11.68g in weight. This object is similar to other knife stops recorded through the PAS (for example NMS-25B303 or ESS-0CF1C2) and is of probable Post-Medieval date, c.16th-17th centuries AD, if not slightly earlier. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | https://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/ | Go to resource |
