Adze, Toki
Complete adze. The cross-section is rectangular. The surface is bruised. There is major differentiation between the butt and blade as both sides have raised shoulders and then taper towards the poll. The bevel is demarcated by a ridge at the chin and by a change in the bruising. The cutting edge is curved and blunt.
