Cool Battery LS!!

This is probably my favourite find from the day
It's an aircraft fire/escape axe.
Found whilst not really looking, I returned to my digging bag to get a cup of tea (it was a cold day) and while drinking just kicked the leaf mould around to discover this on the surface

It's the lid from a squirty-type oil can, the sort with a spout and trigger.

All the best,
PB
