Right on; I thought I could see the tang going into a cavity, but with lost wax casting such is possible, and I don't see any nonmetal showing; only going off what you'd said. Yeah, I view the copper ones, absent some other information as equally weapons as the iron ones. IMHO too much credit is given to weaponly effectiveness in the whole rise of iron discussion. Not that this isn't a factor, but its relative common-ness, for instance, is a factor, too. In any event, if iron weapons are more effective (and absent good bronze this is notable) they also rust away, and coppery weapons are certainly not ineffective. I just keep looking deeper and deeper into that pile.......I'm a bit curious abut the one with the round tip whose middle is behind the squarish sheath in the bottom left of the picture; I think I know what it looks like, but of course I can't be sure......curiosity, interest, and jealousy!
