    Honestly, I'd probably pass.
    The razor is a good bow for someone who isn't sure or just starting out, or someone rather small.
    However, if you have 1 bow, what are you going to do with 2 extra sights? 2 cases?
    You can buy the razor edge in ready to shoot at most chain sporting goods stores for $329 brand new.
    I'm sure he has more than $500 invested but it seems to me like you're just buying all his extra stuff also and I just don't know what you would do with it.

    That is just me though. If you want all the extra stuff then he probably has a little more than that invested.

    Look on here and archery talk and you may find something more suited.

    A lot of manufacturers have ready to shoot packages for pretty cheap and you don't end up with a bunch of stuff you don't need.

    I agree with Indy. great package, but the bow probebly is not the one you want to end up with. seems like it would be super for some one starting out however ;)

    Great little bow but priced about $150 to $200 over priced in my opinion. My son has the original Edge. I haven't had a Razor Edge in my hands but the original Edge is a true two cam bow and if you are not familiar with two cam timing or have a shop or friend close to tune and time it, I would not recommend it. The two cam system can be a pain to work on and time properly. When we bought my sons the dealer guaranteed me it was in perfect time "he tuned it himself". He didn't like it very well when I pointed out that the top cam was hitting the draw stop allot sooner than the bottom cam. I then brought it home an timed it myself
