6/8 Josh Mappin & Brothers Queens Cutlery, double thumb notch.
Just got this in from eBay. Very pleased, it's in great condition, all I did was run some diamond polish over it and clean it up with some simple green so far. I'll hit it with the Mother's and hone it tonight. No rust, just a bit of patina, no pitting, I quite like the blade. It feels good to hold with the double thumb notch.
My only real disappointment is the scales. The are faux ivory, off some other razor. They apparently didn't even fit, as part of the wedge has been cut away so that it will close without hitting them. It closes well and is functional, but man would I really love some actual ivory scales on this guy.
The only other mappin and brothers I've seen have been the lancet edge. Which I like a lot, but I'm extremely happy with this square point smiler for my 26 bucks.

It looks like a razor that should have real ivory to me.
