Well here goes! The first is a Frederick Reynolds and a Wade & Butcher concave grind, sometimes called framebacks! the second is a Boker extra hollow ground and a Thistle Cut. The third is a J.R.Torrey and a W.B.Co. Toledo blade! The last picture is my first and favorite shoulderless. It is a Wedgeway Army Navy!
all are 5/8s except the concave grinds which are 6/8s
The last two are actual framebacks for comparison to the concave grinds for those who don't know the difference!

So, if this thread is any indication, crichton and I are the only ones who like shoulderless razors?
By the way crichton, I really like the looks of the Simmons hardware razor!! If you ever decide to get rid of it contact me first!

But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

Hi - I do have a few of this type of razor but have always known them as 'Bismarck' style blades. I guess this is another of those questions of differing nomenclature! I looked on this thread expecing to see 1790's-ish pieces with no shoulder or indeed 'drop' to the blade (the thing I term a 'shoulder' simply because of the shape). So what could my version of shoulderless blades be called for a club name?
