The side of a celt ornamented in the same manner is engraved by Wilde.[374]
A small palstave, with two vertical grooves in the blade, is shown in Fig. 99.
Another form of winged celt, with a low stop-ridge and with a vertical rib passing through an inverted chevron on the blade, is shown in Fig. 100. The original is in the collection of Mr. Robert Day, F.S.A.
The same style of ornament occurs on palstaves of other forms.[375]
In some instances, there is in the centre of the stop-ridge a kind of bracket on the blade, and the side wings are hammered over so as to form an imperfect socket. A small example of the kind is shown in Fig. 101. I have a larger specimen (4½ inches) from Trillick, Co. Tyrone. Vallancey[376] engraves a palstave of this type.
Others with flat blades and no brackets have the side flanges hammered over in the same manner.

A fine example, in which the conical bracket dies into the stop-ridge and side flanges, is in the British Museum.
