This knife handle tapers towards the socket for the knife; it is oval in cross-section and the terminal is carved to form a three-dimensional zoomorphic head, probably depicting a horse. The handle is hollowed to approximately half-way along its length to accommodate the tang of the knife. Part of the socket and part of the zoomorphic terminal is broken and missing. The body of the handle is decorated with bands of 3 parallel lines. Of the zoomorphic head the neck, mouth and mane are surviving. The detail on the head is marked by carved lines, for example, one diagonal line marks the jaw and the mane is depicted by a series of transverse short lines. The head is also decorated with two ring and dot motifs on each side of the head; one on the side of the face and one on the neck. This knife handle fits within the panoply of this kind of carving for the late 16th century. T is similar in style to LON-A2DDE5 and LVPL-088561 although both are anthropomorphic rather than zoomorphic.

The core of the knife is an iron tang with a intergal end plate and finial knop. The other end of the surviving tang is broken. On the tang sit six ovoid bone sections which widen as they near the finial end. There is a gap between each and a copper alloy plate attached on either side facing the gaps. Each section is carved, and has eight facets. The sections are in sets of three; the bone pieces get thicker as the trio nears the finial end, then thin for the start of the next trio. The largest of each trio is decorated with a ring-and-dot motif on each facet. After the largest bone section is the end plate and knop. The knife now measures 67.5mm (length) x 20.4mm (width) x 12.2mm (thickness) and weighs 18.14g.
