Which is the better of the two, the Razer BlackWidow Keyboard (2013 Edition) or the CM Storm QuickFire Pro Gaming Keyboard - Red Switch?

Except for the price, warranty period (CM 1yr, Razer 2yrs?) and extra macro keys (Razer); I don't see a big difference between the two.
 
Razer: Cherry MX blue tactile & clicky switch with Force feedback / low resistance

CM: Mechanical Cherry Black MX switches

Well then just go with which you think looks better and which switches you prefer. I have the CM Storm Quickfire TK with blue switches. I thought if I was going to buy a mechanical keyboard I may as well go for them.
 
Which fastfood burger?

Big Mac
Spur Burger
King Steer Burger

Do you now see how ridiculous your question is? Go and try the keyboards out and feel them out. Buy the one which feels best for you. Normally when it comes to switches it is all a matter of taste. Pick your switch first then your favorite brand second.

To answer your question. I own the Blackwidow ultimate and it is fantastic. Im sure the CM Quickfire is fantastic too, I saw one, it is very compact IIRC. The only problem with the blackwidow are the macro keys. I never use them.
