Knife

Percy F. Broughton is thought to have collected this artifact while he served as a missionary with the Church Missionary Society, in Lake Harbour on Baffin Island, from 1911-1912.

Large knife with a wooden handle. Blade is metal, symmetrical, and an elongated leaf shape that tapers to a sharp point. Handle is thinner through the hand piece, wider at pommel and at the guard where shaft meets blade. The base of the blade has been inserted into the handle by several millimetres and is held in place by two nails through the guard.
