Complete stone adze. The cross section is lenticular. The surface is ground on the blade and bevel. There is flaking on the butt and back. There is minor delineation between butt and blade, with the sides reduced. The proper right back has been reduced as well, to create a thin blade on that side. The bevel is demarcated by a curved line. The cutting edge is straight and chipped.
