Improvised prison weapon fabricated from a single length of steel rod. One end has been sharpened to a tapered point for use as a stabbing implement, while the opposite end is bent approximately 90 degrees to form an integral L-shaped handle. The rod exhibits widespread corrosion and oxidation across its surface, with areas of wear exposing the underlying metal. The bent handle appears to have been formed by mechanical deformation of the rod rather than by the addition of separate components. The simple all-steel construction is consistent with an improvised close-quarters stabbing weapon designed for durability and ease of concealment.
