Fig. 75. A very beautiful blade of light brown color. The butt has 

 a sharply-defined ragged border. The terraced appearance before 

 noticed is here visible, but curtailed, the middle ridge not being con- 

 tinuous. The neck slopes gracefully to the edge, the extremities of 

 which rise out of the sides so as to give the effect of a thin edge in- 

 serted. There is not the slightest defect in this example. 



Length, 4-^^ inches; width, 4ji- inches.
