Adze, Toki
Adze roughout. The cross section is asymmetrical but approximately rectangular. The surface is flaked with some evidence of a previously ground surface remaining on either the front or the back. The butt is differentiated by a reduction in the sides from the shoulder to the poll. The bevel is unfinished and it is difficult to distinguish the front from the back. The cutting edge is curved and blunt.
