Fig. 104. A grooved blade of dark brown 

 color. It resembles Fig-. 103, excepting that 

 the butt is more distinct and the sides diver- 

 gent. The edge is much worn by use, and 

 the concave grinding very uncommon. 



Length, 4 inches; width of blade, 3-i^, 

 inches. 



Fig. 105. A very attractive blade of bright 

 brown color. The object shows great age 

 by reason of the grinding which has taken 

 away a portion of the butt and changed the 

 outline of the lower border of the groove. 

 The polish and unbroken condition of a 

 specimen so much worn are remarkable. 



Length, 5f-ff inches j width, 5^ inches.
