Not shaped as a grip; on one side sawed through, on the other side slivered broken. On this side the hole for hanging. The entire surface is polished.
On the longer side of the antler tenon an inscription.
So far not autopsied by the Thesaurus Inscriptionum Raeticarum. The indications follow the information given in literature (cp. below the bibliography).
