leather care question
My wife just surprised me with a beautiful Italian lamb skin sports jacket. It's saddle tan in color and if it were any softer it would be illegal to wear. What would be the best way to care for it? I use Picards for my whips but can't see myself coating the jacket with that. Is there a spray produc...

I'd like to know what types(bull, snake Stock), lengths and makers. Lets limit cost ot a total of no more than $2500-$3000. Another way of asking the question is wha...

Leather care question
I've noticed that many of the whip makers sell or advise the use of Pecards leather products for their whips. However when I looked at Western Stage Props web page they carry many of these whips but only sell Fiebing's leather care products. Is there a significant difference? I have no experence wit...

Snake whip questions
For the next whip in my collection I was thinking about a snake whip. I know many feel that they are not as useful as a bullwhip, but I'd like one in my collection. To save some money I was thinking about Cowhide 12 plait 8'. Are there any building standards for Snake whips? I was looking at Bernie ...
