"this... Is God!" - Eddie - 08-23-2004
Well guys, today was a grand day for me today. Not
ONLY did I receive a blank in the mail today, but
another item of a caliber that only a gifted few could
match, the Razorback Replicas Part 1 glove!!
Let me start off by saying that this glove can not
by any means necessary be summarized into one word.
It is simply too amazing to reduce to a simple "awesome"
or "sweet" or "kickass". But like any other Freddy
glove, you would have to hold it in your hand to
believe that what you\'re seeing is real. It is right
in front of your eyes, and it is definately a one of
a kind replica.
The finger braces, as you can tell from the pictures that
Bill himself has posted, are very similar to Kruegear\'s
Part 1, yet the fact that they are an original design
can\'t help but peak through, which makes the glove all
the greater to own, knowing that the patterns were in
no way copied or duplicated. They are also nicely
darkened to decrease the "shine" that can be seen on
raw copper. The strong and thick brass back plate is
neately darkened and aged to match the rest of this
awesome bladed apparatus, and even the rivets themselves
feature the small dent in the center as seen on the
glove in the film. One thing that I really love about
them is that they are long and feature a very creepy
and sinister "skeletal" appearance.
The leather glove is a straight thumbed glove with metal
ball and tape wrist closer, and is stained and weathered
carefully for that perfect aged and beaten look. The
belly of the glove is neatly cut in all the correct places
(i.e. the lower holes in the two middle fingers actually
going past the seam line that separates the fingers from
the palm, the oval-shaped hole right under the lower hole
on the pinkie finger, the cut on the back side of the glove
under the index finger, etc.), everything is in place as
it should be as well as the gaping hole in the palm that
trails up onto the thumb. Even the seam line for the
thumb down near the wrist is torn slightly.
The blades, while being edged, are not razor sharp, however
with force you could knick yourself. They are sanded
carefully and ground to accurate shape. Even the soldering
is done with careful precision and neatness that could
only be done by the finest and most experienced glove
makers out there, and Bill is for sure one of these guys.
The only downside, even though it is very minor, is the
wearability. It fits nice and snug to my hand, however,
the fingers being as long as they are, it is a bit
difficult to move them, however if I simply slide my
hand into the glove more and kind of pull the leather
fingers upward slightly, my fingers are able to wrap
around the prongs more and the glove moves very freely
and easily.
Bill even included a COA with the glove verifying that
it is the very first glove of his to use the new templates,
and to me that makes it even more of a collector\'s item,
because in the years to come when Bill is just as well
known as Kruegear and Anders, there I will be, smiling
and being very proud to own one of the first Razorback
gloves ever made. I myself feel overjoyed and lucky to
own such a fantastic replica, and it will remain one
of my most cherished and honored possessions. So, thank
you Bill for bringing me this fantastic glove and I
hope to do business with you in the future.
Final Score: 10 out of 10
PICS TO COME VERY SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
