- Notes
- Found 1904. JE entry for unknown number of knives. Listed in JE as corresponding to EMC_CG_64750, EMC_CG_64751, EMC_CG_64752, and EMC_CG_64753 (ie., four knives); however, CG gives no provenance for those numbers, and lists EMC_CG_64754 to EMC_CG_64762 (nine knives) as corresponding to EMC_JE_37079. For these, see records EMC_CG_64754 to EMC_CG_64762. SR lists EMC_SR_2/10734 to EMC_SR_2/10745, EMC_SR_2/10771 as = EMC_CG_64750 to EMC_CG_64762 (13 knives, all = EMC_JE_37079).
