Remarks: Mr. K.R. Sansbury wrote, 4 Nov. 1927 that in his opinion the 2 parts do not belong to the same implement.  They do not fit.  The edge portion has been hooked or broken, the butt end does not show similar treatment and is at least 0.5 wider at the fracture, it has also a flaw not perceptible in the edge portion.  The patinations differ, the edge being greenish, the butt purple-brown & the composition does not appear to be the same.  The butt is a roughly cast implement, the edge well finished
