Thanked: 1263Raptor Came Today
The mailman made me a very happy camper today I knew what was in the envelope but opening it was still a wonderful surprise.
No pictures can do this razor justice...from grind to the fit and finish of the scales...all perfect. Being a dummy, I shaved last night so have to wait until tomorrow night to try this beauty out but I just know it'll be great. Thank you Cedric (xAlix) for my first custom Beauty

That is a beautiful and capital-D Dangerous-looking blade.
I agree with Tylerbrycen - it looks like it is very nicely balanced which I can't imagine is always easy to do with a blade that size.
Congrats on its arrival, and beautiful work Cedric!
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

Thanked: 1263Well as I expected, the raptor shaves beautifully! It is definately a razor to be respected however, it bit me..not sure if it was tail or heel, but it did. The balance on this blade however is perfect. Might have been overconfidence and a reality check but it did. I now respect this beast and will be much more careful the next shave but I will tame her or she will tame me..lol.
