Nice. Joed has one of those in fine condition. I've always looked but they are usually priced too high unless one or both of the scales are cracked. I would say they are not uncommon. Just uncommon to find one in that condition.

Very Nice indeed,but get that edge off the anvil

Great finding! Congratulations!
The more I am in this forum, the more I realize it is very bad for my health!

Like the looks of the blade, always liked shoulderless. Just terrific condition too.

Very Nice. So where did you score this one from?

Sweet razor!

@trilliumLT. from razorbob off of EBAY. I was the highest bidder but did not meet the reserve so we worked a price out.

That is truly beautiful, congratulations and enjoy.

Very nice! Indeed hard to find in that shape. They are always cracked or broken, it seems. Bob is a good seller. The best!
Here is one I had, as I received it. It cleaned up beautifully and now lives with a friend down under!
One thing to note about these scales. The pearl tends to crumble under the pins, causing the wedge to spin and the blade to be loose! Then someone tries to pin tight......CRACK! If it gets loose, the only cure is to completely unpin and oversize the pearl and not the liners so as to use a reinforced collar against the liners. Very tedious work! I have collected 7 uncracked sets over many years with which to make a 7 day set. Some are pinned collarless and some not. Some have black wedges and some pewter or lead. Several different makes of blades were in them, about half like yours, albeit not as nice.
