It looks fab, it's got an Aztec look about it.Waiting on one of these
As it has no serious functional issues this one might actually be a great replating candidate as I love how this more elaborate Goodwill head design pattern looks when it's all done up (as per below):

It actually does... If it all looks good when I get it it might go out for a replate. I've already asked for a quote

Maybe I should have Delta Echo have a stab at it and have it top-plate coated in deep black and the pins coming up through it be in crimson red

Just Pressed the Button on this NOS Russian 5/8th SR "ВоÑток-2"(Vostok-2) in Original Case...The Russian Astronauts were Issued these in the 1970s for Space Missions...Cheap as Chips for a Wee Bit of History..I Have Been Informed by a Russian HoneMeister that these are the Best of Steel..
This all @Karl G Fault..He Pressured Me into Buying a Rusky SR..

With the exception of the Schick Type F I'm normally not a big fan of how the Schick injectors type E through L looks like - but I spotted this cased, black handled, I believe I1, with chrome metal and must admit I found it to be rather attractive.
Luckily for me I was the only one who thought so and $9 later it was mine.
While I don't think there are any really 'rare' Type I's I do think I see fewer of these (black handle w/ chromed metal) ones around

I've got a Canadian #162, You will have to manually align the blade. Shaves just like an OLD type, which it is.
