    Default Fontana 408?

    So I just bought this straight razor off ebay, listed at a Fontana 408 5/8". I saw that it was a Fontana and had to have it, since I know they are a good razor. However, I can't find any information about a Fontana 408 5/8" razor anywhere. One side of the tang says "Fontana Solingen" and "Made in Germany," and has the fountain stamp. The other side has this "408 5/8" marking along with "Garantiert Bohler Stahl." Has anyone heard of this razor before? I have a couple pics that were on the ebay page. I'm still waiting to receive the actual razor, but I thought I would check out the history before it arrives. The scales appear pretty rough, but I have been carving out a nice set of rosewood scales anyway, so that's not an issue.
