Adze, Toki
Complete adze. The cross section is rectangular. The surface is ground and has two saw marks on the proper left hand side and a third on the front near the butt. There is minor differentiation between the butt and the blade as the two sides taper in towards the poll. The bevel is demarcated by a faint ridge at the chin. The cutting edge is straight and sharp with a chip on the proper right hand side.
