Adze, Toki

Complete adze The cross-section is rectangular. The surface is bruised but the bevel is ground. No differentiation between the blade and the butt, but the sides taper towards the poll. The bevel is mainly continuous with the blade although there is a ridge on the proper left side due to flaking. The cutting edge is oblique and sharp with a chip on the proper left side.
