    I always thought that the name "Slim" Adjustable was just a nickname generated by the modern wet shaving culture along the lines of "Fat Boy", but, according to this picture I stumbled across, that was the official name. Who would've thunk it? :think002

    I believe the slims were called slims, and thats why people started calling the wider adjustable the fatboy.
