    I used to play Elite on C64, so I've had practice with that word is all.

    Where is the crack & does it move ? If it doesn't it could simply be a surface crack that will not affect anything.
    Here is an example of a surface crack running almost the full length of the spine. Completely safe & no effect on the razor

    I was going to ask if it moves but the crack looks like its about 2mm thick, you can see light through the blade in the photo. It starts in the middle of the point and almost goes down to the double stabilizing piece.

    The crack in the photo you provided looks no wear near as bad unfortunately.. It's a shame really.
