Title
A Post Medieval incomplete iron folding knife with bone handle (16th – 17th century).
Description
English: A Post Medieval incomplete iron folding knife with bone handle (16th – 17th century).

The end of the iron blade is missing. The initial’s GT have been stamped on the left side of the blade near the handle. There are two bone plates attached to the end of the handle. They do not extend the length of the handle and only cover the half the length to the butt. Both of the bone plates are decorated with scored chevrons against a background of hatching (diagonal incised lines). The iron pins which attach the bone plates to the handle are still visible. The blade is extended in the open position.

Dimensions: length: 145.93mm; width: 18.56mm; thickness: 15.09mm; weight: 62.08g.
