Thread: Torched and left for dead WB Muscle project

This is how I found this grand old piece of steel
Started the clean up and called out for 10Pups.


Wanted to repurpose and give this a little Muscle and Hot Rod flair.

After 10Pups mad skills and attention to detail this is what he designed and built

I like it!
It has a nice CLASSIC design....

Seriously though....probably not to everyone's liking but I think it is cool.

It is YOURS so if you are happy then that is all that matters!

Once again 10pups you show the attention to QUALITY you put into your work!

Are you telling us that our very own 10Pups had a hand in designing this awesome looking razor that shines like the chrome in that pic of that muscle car?

I always thought of 10Pups as an adroit, adept, competent craftsmen, but this just takes it to a whole new level of ferkin' eh awesomeness!

You got it. If only one person does I made a point. It feels so good in the hand. It is a functional piece of art that is useful and amazing in touch and feel.
Nothing stays the same. If the community wants to appeal to the next generation, and not the orange swirl G10 scales. This is an elegant rehab. For the detractors its a Ford with a new paint job. But it is one hec of a paint job .You made my day by getting what I say in my mind eye. Thank-you.

For the record 10Pups made me go and look at your work first as we collaborated. I tip my hat to your vision. and delivery to detail. I wanted similar but different. I wanted an S shape and muscle. This scales was meant to resemble a Upper arm bone or Humerus. So your work was a catalyst to stretching my mind but not copying you.

It's a beautifully designed razor you and 10Pups came up with.

Having said that, I've never designed a razor nor scales in my entire life...sorry...

I was told to go look at your WBs and the scale shapes. Being an obedient apprentice I searched your screen name and WB and liked what I saw. I made the leap in my mind. I liked the WBs that you shared with the community. The leaps open my mind to new ideas , but also I make more mistakes. This is a bicostal mentoring that I value, but somethings get lost in translation . Your a hero now too. Consider it a bonus attributed to you. I did look at your collection.It inspired me and 10pups showed my what my words translated into pictures in his head. here look at this.



The last one just spoke to me. 10Pups did all the heavy lifting and horn skills that I can only try to understand.

Thank-you very much....that's the exact reason I put them in my photo album, so that others can have a look at restored vintage razors and other great vintage blades and perhaps share some ideas, as most members here do, such as yourself.

The other reason is so that I can look at them time and again without having to go downstairs and take them out of the box they are stored in...and not potentially damage them!

I will pass your kind words on to Valery at the Gentleman's Den, he does all the restore work and they are all his designs, obviously, I really like his work, and I'm sure he will be pleased that you got some ideas and inspiration from his work.

I really like what you did with that razor, everything about it works!

Definitely looks like its flexing its muscle. Looks great.
