That's one blank. 1 3/4 X 1 3/4, and 2 1/4 inches tall.
Cleaning up and putting back together a lovely Chicago razor simply called Regal. Looks like celluloid scales, but ivory tang covers. Nice jimp work on it as well.

CHRISTMAS !!!!!!!!!
Took apart the only razor of a seven day set, wich happens to be the wendsday blade.
Straightend the scales,(blade was dragging against the warped scales) cleaned the blade a little, cleaned and polished the scales, pinned back together, and honed for my birthday morning shave tomorrow.

Lost a little etch, and gold wash from the tang, but it's to be expected. The blade is a FRI-KO from Germany.
Happy Birthday! Also I can't help but notice the case. I love original cases for seven day set, even when the sets are gone.
It's too bad the zipper is out of it. I hope a friend of mine (owns a canvas shop) can stich me a new one in.
The case is made of a thin leather and is in decent condition.
Nice razor to have your birthday shave with Mike. Happy Birthday bud. I'm right behind you. Mine's on the 25th. Will be a Belfast shave for me on that morning.
Cheers.
What is that..? [emoji53]
