Also, which I'll be interested to find out for sure, I'm normally miles out but I think I may have found 2 Bronze tools. They came up side by side and its the flatter one that caught my eye. In one picture there I have tried to capture what I think is the cutting edge, how sharp it is and you can see that it was worked by the stripe lines. When i hold it my thumb fits in the lower groove perfectly and my first finger fits the upper groove for a perfect hold for scraping or cutting. I say they are made of bronze only because I know its not iron, brass or copper, so I assume its bronze. The top object is just under 3" long and the bottom one just under 2.5" long.
Pictures can be clicked for bigger view.
As I said, I'm normally miles out as my imagination runs away with me sometimes, but I just can't help thinking they are man made so if anyone has any idea or seen similar before please let me know.
I will do my best to find out for sure.
***UPDATE***... I put these pictures up on a metal detecting forum and I had one reply saying, " Looks to be bronze melt run off".... oh well, my bubble's burst, I really thought I had something very interesting... maybe next time.
