I figured out how to post PICS, so finally here are a couple of my Terry Jacka bullwhip. It is the 10 footer and i got it in October of 08.

I really like the whip!
I've never handled a Jacka - how does she crack?
Thanks

How did you get the darker knots?

I handpainted it with dye using a small brush.

Beautiful! I'm still waiting to hear back from Terry for mine! I've been waiting since December!
How long did you wait for yours? And HOW DOES SHE CRACK?
Oh, yeah, and how DOES one post pics on this thing?

I ordered it in May of last year and I got it in October , so I'd say it took about 6 months. I'm NOT a whip expert so I really wouldn't know how to describe how it cracks. I've owned a DM and The Jacka feels alot heavier.

Nice Job on the dye work, Have you had any trouble with the dye coming off in your hands when your using the whip?

I wiped any excess dye off after it was dry and again after I put Pecards on it. I think it's pretty stable now. Haven't noticed anything on my hands.

Hello
Very nice whip my friend.
I prefer the Last cruzade stile, but the Jacka's work is perfect.
Best regards.
