Description

A long, narrow iron object shown upright on a pale grey backdrop within a cream card border. Its surface is heavily corroded and pitted, with a rounded top, a slightly wider middle section and a tapering lower end. The form suggests a blade, though the corrosion makes its exact type hard to judge.
