Upper Palaeolithic flint penknife point
A penknife point fragment has straight steep, abrupt retouch along one length. The other length is angled with steep, abrupt retouch forming a termination to the blade by bringing it to a point. There is part of the unmodified blade length beyond this. The tool is very heavily patinated and weathered.
