I was watching an episode of the Twilight Zone series from 1959 and I saw this scene when one of the character was using a DE razor, but i'm not quite sure which razor he was using. It looks to me like some of the Bottom Dial Fatboys with black knobs or maybe it's something else. What do you think?

Black Tip Super Speed? (1951/1952) Very common and mild shaver.
It looks like a regular fatboy

I totally forgot about the Black Tip and I thought it's something else, since the black knob looked a bit thicker compared to the rest of the handle.
My guess ... is also a fat boy, and that black thing at the bottom is simply looking up through the bottom of the razor and is a shadow.

To me, the handle looks to thick to be a black tip SS (I have one). I agree that it's probably a Fatboy.
There was a very rare bottom dial fatboy with a black adjuster dial

Anyone else find his grip interesting? I would like to see the episode and see more of his technique.
Good point.
