Wow!!! That is in perfect shape...it's a 7/8 spike point!! That's in awesome shape...haha....scales and blade are perfect!
That's the same one I couldn't believe I got from E-Bay for $85.00...wondered if it was a mistake at first....night and day comparing the two, here's the one I got:

That's in beautiful shape, thanks for posting...it's great to see old blades like that looking so new...same with that W&B, should look spectacular with some polish. I used my Goldedge again the other day, man, that blade, at least for me, requires some serious skill with the extra-hollow ground, I made it one pass, again, with no cuts or nicks, and called it even, enough! It's the only blade I own where I'm actually somewhat apprehensive to use, one tiny mistake with it for me, and it's serious pinklather time. What's your experience with the DD extra-hollows like?
edit: that's a 5/8? Looks bigger to me?
Here is the gun metal tang stamp on the one I'm restoring.

I like them a lot but not for customers, that tip is a good way to slice a face in a hurry... the extra hollows sing though so using on other people I dont mind them so much, sound doesnt play much role shaving myself but it does a bit for shaving others, I like em all honestly, whole reason for having rotations.
