Short, broad blade with convex edges. The flat, rectangular tang is set central to the blade and separated from it by an oval stop. The closest parallels to this knife and No 321 following were found in male graves at Lankhills cemetary, Winchester (Clarke 1979, 250), and dated to the 4th century AD. Unfortunately neither of the Segontium examples has a complete tang so it is impossible to assign them to Clarke's Type A or B.
