Super Speeds are different than Rockets. Gillette may have put grease in the inner mechanism of the Rocket which could account for the noticeably different feel in the TTO action when twisted. The Rockets have an exceptionally smooth, slightly resistant feel that the Super Speeds don't. This isn't to say that SSs aren't smooth- they certainly are but if you've ever opened and closed a Rocket, you'll know the difference that I'm talking about. Definitely something different going on in the Rocket inner-handle area. Can someone who has ever disassembled a Rocket please chime in?
