OH NO! Do you think it is repairable?

I'm going to try and fit a similar part from another razor.  I have a broken Contour II and it looks to have a similar part.  I may have to glue it in or something.

If you're having trouble with it pictures would help. Maybe someone can think of something.

Not sure where to ask or post regarding the “Streamline” and “Jewel “ razor models. If you have them or one, how does it compare to the other more available models in how it performs? Thank you ?

During some conversation with TobyC I realized that the handle of my Ever-Ready 1914 would fit my Lather Catchers. What a wonderful discovery. I can't believe I didn't realize this sooner. The length and weight are really nice for the Jr. Bar and I look forward to trying it on other Lather Catchers.
