Am making extra leaves for a 110-year-old walnut dining table. Below is a tracing of it. Would there be a router bit like this, or will I need to figure out how to do it with a combination of bits? The top is 3/4 thick and from the sharp edge on top to the outer curve is 11/16. Thanks.

You might search at MLCS. A quick look at their site shows the bit shown at this link:

Probably going to need a second pass with another bit to shape the bottom of your profile.

This
Grizzly giant thumbnail bit would give you the main profile, and a standard roundover bit of whatever radius you like will give you the bottom.

Whiteside has bits for the top edge, you'll need a round over bit for the understand edge.

Page 23 in the Whiteside catalog shows the thumbnail table edge bit. You will have to add a round-over bit for the bottom edge.
