Hi Mark

I think it is possibly a Shears, but not in the best of shape and slightly blurred, so not sure.

Mark

Sorry about the photo. I initially thought Shears but it did not have the diagnostic white mark.

Thanks for your help

It is a worn individual and so difficult to rely on a particular character. There are quite a few features that suggest Shears to me.
