If it's an old Murat job, it probably had the old Lamiglas blank nomenclature and was originally an 11'6" that was cut. What tip size does it take? That would help tell whether it was cut from the butt or the tip.

The only way to definitely identify the blank number would be to remove the cork tape or other grip material and check the label (assuming the adhesive hasn't made it unreadable).

From the way you described it tho, I'll hazard a guess that it was an 1164 blank, which translates into an SB 136 2F under today's nomeclature.

Here's how they translate:

1163=SB 136 2M
1164=SB 136 2F
1165=SB 136 3M
1166=SB 136 4M
