Description

Several dark, pointed blades stand upright on a pale grey backdrop, in two groups separated by a vertical line: five on the left and two on the right. Each has a raised central ridge that tapers to a sharp point and a short, narrowing base. The metal surfaces are dark with uneven patina and some wear.
