This came with a Gillette Old I purchased from ebay and I must confess to knowing nothing about it.

I'm presuming that Corrux is the manufacturer (the only other writing on the blade is RGD), and that it is a single edge blade?

If so, what razor would it fit?
 
It's a single edge blade, and should fit all SE razors that use disposable blades, like the GEMs and Evereadies. I would recommend against shaving with this particular one though...

I think there was some type of corrugation in the corrux blades (hence the name), with the associated claim that the blade was more stable and therefore 'better'.
 
if you find any Ever Ready SE razor NOS or at least complete with box, you will find it came with Corrux Blades, they are standard Carbon Steel and must be kept completely dry after use, and they are not very sharp, well not after 50 - 60 years as i have tried a couple myself, and they tugged to hell.
