Adze, Toki

Part A: Incomplete, broken adze. Light brown stone. The cross-section is rectangular. The surface is bruised and flaked. It is unclear which end of an adze this piece is. There is one edge that is relatively sharp but in an asymmetrical curve. There are some rounded edges. Part B: Incomplete broken adze. Grey stone. Irregular cross-section. There is no butt or bevel, it appears to be a small part of a much larger adze. The surface is both flaked and bruised.
