Title
Bronze age blade
Description
English: A bronze fragment from near the tip of a blade, of a broad flat type with slightly concave edge bevels. It has a deep brown patina on the majority of one face and the same patina in small patches on the other face. It is also severly affected by invasive corrosion which has resulted in large pock marks, loss of surface and loss of edges. This blade fragment could be from a sword, knife, rapier, dirk, dagger or possibly a sickle; too little survives to be sure.
