Below the D-ring, in the fork of the shank, a chain extends downwards and is connected to the crown by two shackles. The arms are cylindrical in shape and pass through two eyes that form the base of the shank. The flukes are attached to either end of the cylindrical arms and extend vertically, terminating in a pair of arrow-shaped palms.
