I want to say Rocket but I'm not sure. The white handles just slide off and the TTO opening collar is near the top. There's two of these razors in the picture.

I believe that is the Slim Twist. I have a Knack and it looks like this:

My vote is for Slim-Twist. I believe the round handle is the Knack.

Originally my thought but for some reason right now I am thinking it is the opposite way

Oh ar it be the Slim Twist mateys!


To my knowledge the Knack, besides having a different handle, was never produced with a white one.

Itīs a Slim Twist. Here you can see him in gold with black handle from the 1970s.

I've got the 2 models (black and white) and I can tell you It's a slim twist. Have a look at Mister Krumholz book and you''l read that this model is a slim twist. (very good razor indeed)
