Complete rough out. The cross section is rectangular. The surface of the front is ground but the back is flaked. 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 line of flaking. The cutting edge is straight but blunt with flaking along it.
