That's one amazing looking razor right there. I bought mine from Maggard's razors too. It's from the second run so no problems with the paint chipping or anything else, only some minor cosmetic marks on the headpiece that looks made by the machining process, but the shave is amazingI agree with you davidepeden, the razor performs exceptionally well, but the finish sucks. I eventually had mine painted. Once it returned to me, I made a few more modifications, and am happy with it.
