When the war was over Gillette resumed production of the Twist To Open razors but the Ranger had evolved into the Super Speed. No Gillette collection is complete without a Ranger Tech."
I am pretty sure that is what you have there. I have one and it also has the smooth ring over the TTO knob and the same marking.

Now clean it up, put it away and get a straight razor.
War broke out here a bit earlier than that! My grandmother had been bombed-out three times by then..............
and my greatgrandfather was suffering all sorts of after effects of been blown-up by the Kruats on numerous occasions by '41.
And those b4stards bombed our chippy!
