The image shows a metal tool with a long handle and a wide, V-shaped head. The tool has a long, thin handle made of metal with small orange numbers and letters written vertically on it. The head of the tool is wide and shaped like a "V" with two prongs that are slightly curved outward. The metal is gray and has a rough texture with darker spots and marks on it, suggesting it is old and worn. The background of the image is black. The title of the image is "Arrowhead (Yanone)" by an unknown artist.
