In the second half of the 17th century, stiletti were very common in Italy; the "centoventi", which served as a measuring instrument and weapon for artillerymen and provided information about calibers, is particularly well known. Cf. Boccia/Godoy: Museo Poldi Pezzoli, Armeria II, 1986, Ills. 852-880.
