Good step above the basic razor - Vortex Razor UHD 12x50mm Roof Prism Binoculars

I typically do my research before expending this kind of $$$ and wondered if these were indeed a step above the original Razor. At this time of purchase I couldn't find much in forums or reviews to go on. I have the Razor HD 10X42 (Chinese model) and they are very good in their own right but these are well worth the increased cost with the AK prisms. FOV in the 12X50's is of course narrower than my Razor 10X42's but I was amazed that I could discern individual, distinct blades of grass at great distances away with these, fine details at distances are phenomenal, these are sharp as a tack. In one review I did find, one gentleman scoffed that at the UHD introductory price he'd rather spend his money on Sw***** SLC's but these are easily equal or better to my eyes. Also, OP had the 12% discount when I made the purchase that further sweetened the deal. These are no doubt larger and heavier as you can see from the specs, but I can hold Binos pretty steady so have no trouble with these 12X. To my eyes these are amazing, it's got to be the AK prisms as I never owned a pair as such, give them a try!
