Here's 10 foot KotCS style bullwhip that I made.
Normally I don't make 10 footers, but this was made for an order that ended up not happening, so it's a homeless whip...don't be shocked it you see it on the Cairo Bazaar page holding a sign that says "
Will Break The Sound Barrier for Food "
There are a couple more pictures on my blog and a video of me giving it a few test cracks.

Great looking whip Louie. I like the taper you have on it.

Nice. I like it. Is that really how dark it is or just the camera?

I think the camera darken'd it up a bit. I haven't really learned to photograph whips yet.

I lightened up the pictures some. This is probably closer to the actual color of the whip. Louie, I'll delete this if you don't agree.
