Crafted in the 9th-11th century AD, this lock key is made of forged iron, measuring approximately 4 inches. Its bit is tapered and rounded, requiring precise key insertion and bolt location within the case. The design suggests a distant bolt from the keyhole, making it thief-resistant. Similar examples can be found in Gotland Sweden's Mastermyr Find. This key features a complex iron basketwork grip and a degraded wooden grip. This instance boasts a forged tapered grip with a hole-pierced spatulate terminal. Its similarity to others suggests a Swedish origin.
