Thread: Custom 9/8 Razor, Shark and Awe!

Good Evening,

Here is a custom razor that I recently finished up for one of our fine members known here on SRP as, PFunkDaddy. I enjoyed this project and would like to thank him for his amiable manner and providing much food for thought which helped lay the groundwork for this theme. I named it SHARK AND AWE. It was my intention to show something very fluid and real looking but at the same time maintain superb function and handling for the straight razor. The shark razor is meant to look suspended in a wave on the attack. I tried to incorporate a variety of small details into each piece to provide dimension color and depth. The simulated wave is a custom designed and colored resin which has a bubbled texture. It swivels on the main brass beam a few degrees either way to show a different position of the shark in the picture. The razor is meant to look totally suspended like in the water. I accomplished this with a discreet rod frame designed to be hidden by the body of the razor while on the stand. 1/8" holes in the teeth and tail hold it in place. It simply glides on for rest or off for use. The razor scales are also a custom color that I had made especially for this razor because I was not able to capture it with any stock materials. The blade is 9/8+ hollow ground with small details here and there that I felt fit this theme. I could keep going, but I'll shut up, lol Many thanks for having a look

Have a great Mothers Day Weekend!

Best Regards, Ken
