    Default 11/8 ROME stubtail

    Couldn't pass this one up as a new collection centerpiece. It is marked ROME with a maltese cross, which I assume corresponds to Stephen Fox. Good information on this branch of cutlers from Fikira at https://historyrazors.wordpress.com/...norris-p-more/. I have no idea how to peg a date for this but it's 18th century for sure, I'll say mid-18th to be safe. This thing is absolutely massive sitting between 11/8 and 12/8. To highlight this, the last few pictures are next to a 17/16 Celebrated FBU for comparison. Still have a lot of open questions on this one.
