I am trying to create a touch mark design for my crafts and I have it in my mind to use anglo saxon runes due to their simplicity in carving a punch, and am aware runes as they were represented more than just letters or sounds, so I am looking for the rune for 'knife' or 'work with a knife', does anyone know of any good sources of runes ?

I did in the past, when I was at art college use the archer's rune, why, I can't remember because I lost all my research notes.
 
I'd use Seax, which in runes is these 3 AS runes
