really nice blade you have there! I'm a fan of shoulderless vintage blades and this one is definitely cool.

I rest my case.

Thanks for the kind comments and suggestions. Here are a couple more pictures and the back-story.
I was too young when my granddad died to remember him. I'm often told that I'm a lot like him in some ways, and that we'd have gotten along really well. This razor was my granddad's favourite. It was passed on to my uncle after my granddad died and was stolen when my uncle's house was broken into. The day after the break in my uncle was looking through the garbage bins in his neighbourhood for the "worthless" items the thieves tossed during their getaway, he found it along with some of his other "worthless" possessions. A few days ago when I told my uncle that I use straight razors, he decided that I should have it.

Great job and awesome story.
Makes the shave experience that much more enjoyable I am sure...
