A long, narrow iron blade tapers to a point at the top and narrows to a short tang at the bottom. Its surface is heavily corroded, rough and flaking, with darker patches. It is laid upright on a pale card mount, with a partly visible handwritten number near the bottom and a small label along the left edge.
