FTWCO - JEFF DECKER, TALENTED ?? WAY BEYOND THAT !!!

JUST CHECKED OUT THE USUAL SUPER COOL V.O.D FROM THE BRAD AT FTW AND THERE IS A "MOTOR COMPANY" FLICK ABOUT JEFF DECKER AND HIS INSANELY EVOCATIVE SCULPTING WORK . . . .
IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN HIS WORK OR THE CLIP BEFORE, EVEN IF YOU HAVE, IF YOU'RE INTO BIKES, HISTORY AND LEGITIMATE ARTISTIC GENIUS, TAKE A GANDER AT IT . . . SHORT, BUT VERY FUCKING SWEET !!!

A lot of us have much that is negative to say when it comes to the modern era Bar and Sheild operation but when the subject of their endeavours is one Jeff Decker, what's to criticize . . ??

Correctomundo, nothing, anyone who's been half into the subculture of classic chops and bobs and the history of H-D over the best part of the last decade has heard of, or seen, work done by this fella, often in cahoots with his illustrious cohorts at large, "The Sinners" . . . . .

The guy is one superbly talented, gifted, possibly touched by the hand of god, cat . . . whether it's belt buckles, bikes, sculptures, artwork whatever, Decker and his fingers shower sparks of inspired magic . . maybe it's his spiritual beliefs, who knows . . . . and from what I've been told by a few connected dudes close to him, he is, as we say in the Antipodes, a bloody good bloke as well.

  1. I've talked to Jeff Decker just a couple times over the years - and he remembered me this year at Sturgis and got me in to this VIP deal - it was really cool and informative. He went around and explained all the history behind these items he's collected over the years. Super cool and it was one of the neatest things - I sent him a thank you - but, not big deal to him - but, it was to me, my friend and sister.
