A customer asked me to make an Indy Style in Whiskey to get the older look in Last Crusade. The deal never finalized, but I had the whip prepped so I decided to make it, anyway. I figured there's nothing wrong with having a nice "in stock". In case anyone is interested, this one is for sal...

Nice job with the tapered handle!

Thank you!

The color is gold. I wish it would stay that color after waxing, too, because it's very nice. But I also like the color it ends up as afterwards.

This is my first attempt at a KOTCS style bullwhip. I am extremely happy with how it turned out!

Great looking whip! How thick is calfskin compared to kip and roo? It's 2-3 oz like roo and kip, so at first touch it's very similar. Something about it takes a little getting used to when cutting and pairing, though. It seems "lighter" somehow when the blade slides through it. And if you...

I make this type sometimes. It's an eight foot calf skin. I call these type "Calf Skindiana Jones" bullwhips. I love the properties and color of these veg tanned calf skins. Once conditioned, the strands cut from the skins are surprisingly strong. I was really leaning into the strands as I...

Pretty great. I’ve been taking it everywhere with me. I’m pretty sure this is my every day whip for a while.

Yes, thank you. It’s easy to write long about something you’re passionate about. But readers can feel that passion, and enjoy it!

When I was 10 I saw Raiders for the first time, and of course I became absolutely fascinated by the look of the whip! How could braided leather be so smooth...so shiny? Having one was all I could think about. My dad got me a $100.00 street fair whip a few months later...nothing like Indy's...but I W...

That's so kind, thank you! Making these things is my passion (obsession). Especially when it comes to making the Holy Grail of whips, the one that started it all for me when I was a kid.

Beautiful!

It's always great to read a good adventure story! I'm glad you like the whip, Chose Poorly! It was a pleasure to make. But what whip isn't?
