Sword largely covered in soil concretion. The parallel-sided blade is pattern-welded, with sloping shoulders; the point is missing and only 700 mm remains (including the hilt); width at top of blade, 58 mm; width towards tip, 57 mm. The length of the grip could not be ascertained, and there are no traces of the guards, but the pommel is a small, convex, oval iron button pommel; length, 20 mm; width, 14 mm; height, 7 mm. A knife about 115 mm long is visible under the blade in the x-radiograph.
