A straight adze made from an old file with a D-shaped wooden handle lashed on with cedar bark. The blade is still fairly sharp, and it appears the metal file may have been moved along the length of the adze as it required sharpening. The end of the handle is slightly flared as if it has been struck with a hammer.; Good

Large hafted stone maul, grooved for lashing and faced for mounting on handle, wedge-shaped at end.; Good

Finely carved spoon in dark mountain-goat horn. The tip of the handle is broken, but below it are several creatures. In descending order, a humanoid crouches on a raven' s head in whose beak a small animal is clutched. The raven is perched on the head of what possibly could be a seal, in whose snout a transformatory humanoid is represented. The seal is holding the bowl of the spoon within its mouth. The eyes of the seal, raven, and broken creature at the tip were possibly once inlaid with abalone which is now missing. The carving is very intricate and the detail is remarkably fine.; GoodCatalogue card for E 1907.562-3, notes in black ball point, 'Two spoons of black horn: the plain bowls are fastened to to curved taper handles elaborately carved in relief with totemic emblems.'
