Description
A toki which appears to have been made with rough tools as the finish is very rough. The area around the tip is much smoother and back is square cut. Adze is quite high and right side (if used by the right hand) is sloped into top and fits quite comfortably. The stone is mid green-grey. There appears to be a small blue "WD" on tip in ink.
