Adze, Toki
Complete adze. The cross section is rectangular. The surface of the blade is ground while the rest is bruised. There is very slight differentiation between the butt and the blade as the sides taper in towards the poll. The bevel is demarcated by a ridge at the chin. The cutting edge is oblique and sharp but has a chip on the proper left hand side.
