Knife with an iron blade and a wooden handle, in a wooden sheath. The blade has a raised ridge down the middle. The handle and sheath are both carved with a raised diamond design, and are similar so that when the knife is sheathed it forms an almost symmetrical object. The sheath is made in two halves of different-coloured wood, which are bound together with copper wire. At the top of the sheath, where the blade fits in, is a small raised section of wood with a hole through it. The knife was made by a smith ('mhangura').
The object has a rectangular, beige label with it, written on in pencil.
