It is very probable that the two lines form one inscription, though it is not clear where the text starts. Assuming that {{w||paniun}}, though neither a typical Raetic individual name ending in a vowel nor featuring a pertinentive suffix, is a first name complementing the exemplary patronymic {{w||laśanuale}} in the pertinentive case, we may have the name of the donor/giver/receiver/manufacturer on one side of the handle.

Commentary

First published in Meyer 1901, but mentioned already by Wieser 1889. Autopsied by TIR in November 2013.

Pictures in Meyer 1901: 2 (drawing = Mayr 1960e: Abb. 1), LIR (drawings), MLR (photos).

Length 8.3 cm / 9.5 cm respectively. The L2 s in laśanuale has two bars; the leftmost one may be a failed attempt at either the bar of L2 s (not close enough to the hasta) or unintentional – a similar small stroke, without white inlay, precedes the first stroke of U2 s in utiku at the top of the line. A reading V2 s, as suggested by Whatmough and Battisti 1944: 223, is unlikely, as E s is upright. Cp. VN-10. No white inlay in the last punctuation mark.

It is very probable that the two lines form one inscription, though it is not clear where the text starts. The exemplary patronymic laśanuale in the pertinentive case (the donor?) is missing a corresponding individual name; on taniun see the word page. On the other side, utiku is followed by possibly an individual name in the genitive perunies (the recipient?). sχaistala remains lexically and grammatically opaque; a separation into sχais and †pala, as performed by Pisani 1935: 94, is not likely, seeing how diligently separators are used elsewhere in the inscription.
