Signed & Dated Wrought Iron Tobacco Cutter

Unusual late 19th C. blacksmith-made tobacco cutter mounted on a wooden base 1 1/2” thick shaped like a Federal shield. I can’t be sure what the wood is: it’s heavy, possibly maple. The underside has a date and signature stamped with individual dies: “E. Harris  1881”. All the rivets are roseheads.
