    By eye I think they are some kind of genuine ivory. If they have little marks in them almost like dashes that are darker they may be bone. If the top of the one side is just broken off and there is enough left on that side to tighten the pin so that the razor can be stropped and honed without the scales flopping around I would leave it as is.

    If the pin cannot be tightened I would get some replacement scales and save the two ivory sides for another project. Just IMO.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
