Ciao, Luigi from italy.

Many unused straight razors are being sold, not an unusual phenomenon really. NOS (New Old Stock).

There are a lot of razors out there that where purchased many years ago and never used. NOS or New Old Stock , they are called. They resurface as they are found. I know a fellow that happened upon a garage sale and this man's father sold barber supplies. Just so happens all his stock had been sitting in this room since he passed away only to be up for sale almost 60 years later.

Yes, I'd agree that it looks like a New Old Stock (NOS) razor. The only thing that puzzles me is that the hinge pin, photo #3, and wedge pin, photo #6, seem to have been replaced at sometime with the new type nail head pins. Overall it looks to be a very nice razor. Enjoy using it.
