Prepare the Thousand Island dressing by combining mayonnaise, ketchup, pickle relish, Worcestershire sauce, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
Drain the sauerkraut and gently heat it in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
Butter one side of each slice of marbled rye bread. Lay the slices butter-side down on a clean surface.
Spread a generous layer of the prepared Thousand Island dressing on the unbuttered side of two slices of bread.
Top each dressed slice with 4 ounces of corned beef, 2 slices of Swiss cheese, and half the warmed sauerkraut.
Place the remaining slices of bread on top, buttered side facing out, to form two sandwiches.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Carefully place the sandwiches onto the skillet.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crisp.
Flip the sandwiches and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately with extra Thousand Island dressing on the side for dipping.
