Man, that is such a cool little piece of history!Thanks for sharing, Greg! Now I see what TobyC was talking about, just having a razor without the top cap being similar to that. I think I've seen Jayaruh in one of his videos shaving with a Damaskeene without the tap cap. I guess this is where you test your skills!
Really not much different than the earlier lather catchers. Pretty much everything before the Jr Bar had pretty much the same amount of blade exposed. The Jr. Bar didn't have a top cap either. But the Bar acted in the same way as a top cap. It is a cool piece of shave history either way.
