A sheet copper-alloy end-cap from a medieval scale-tang knife. The object is sub-oval in shape with protrusions at each narrow end. There is a slight groove as the protrusions begin with transverse filing on the upper surface. The central rectangular slot has rounded corners. In profile the object is arched into a 'U' shape. It now has a largely dark green patina with some iron staining on the lower surface. Such end-caps tend to be given a 15th-century date.
