Description

A long, narrow iron blade photographed upright against a pale grey card. The blade is broadest at the top, where the end is broken and flat, and tapers to a rounded point at the bottom. Its surface is rough and pitted with corrosion, and the left edge runs almost straight while the right edge curves toward the tip.
