Which razor has the seperate tube?

[Goldtwins]

I seem to remember seeing pictures of a very old Gillette that I thought had a tube over two pieces that formed the full head and held the tube/handle on. I think the issue was that the tubes split? What model is this if it exists? Are they hard to find and expensive? I don't want any of the head parts to be part of the outer tube. The whole reason is I wanted to try to turn a handle for one but would need to go out and find one first. Especially if I can find a a broken/split handled one.
Thanks

It is the ball end handle used on the later Old Type pocket sets and the same handle used with all Goodwill razors, and the early pre-common bar handle NEW's. As for test handles, I'm sure you will have plenty available

Hmm I look ed up the goodwill and that isn't what I am looking for. I thought there was a razor that has a shaft that runs through a handle tube and screws to the a head top. So basically three pieces being a head top with a screw, a female threaded shaft with a knob/bottom and then a tube that fits over the shaft and stays in place when the top and bottom screw together. Again I might be remembering incorrectly and there is no such razor. I wanted this so I didn't have to put in a threaded piece to the wood handle. I wanted to be able to turn the handle as if I was making a wood pen and then use that to slide over the other two pieces.

looking at pictures maybe the bottom of the head was always attatched to the tube as in a single/double ring. Oh well.

Yup. The head's base plate was always attached to the handle tube in the single and doulbe rings, the Bulldog, the New Improved and the New DeLuxe type razors. It was also the norm in the Big Fellows and Big Boys.
