New whip and couple others small projects

Post by Kiscien »

Hello everybody!

It's my latest whip I made. 9 ft 12 plait, kangaroo hide. Lead under turk's head. Not very heavy, so it doesn't tired the hand when cracking. Also has very nice taper and smooth action. It's very nice whip to crack, at least I think so :).

Hope You like it!

Cheers,
Karol

I forgot to change te subject. Generally I thought that it is indiana forum, and if I put here bags, belts and other not indy stuff it will be not well seen.

Small update to show you how it's darkened. It's nearly 1 year old. I've recently changed the fall for a whitehide one, thanks Gio!

Looks like the transition knot is slightly on the flexible part?

No, it's a bit came askew. The end of the handle is in the middle of the ringknot.

It's well broken in, it's flexible like cairo scene whip. I love performing wraps with this whip. And I can crack it all day, because it doesn't tire my arm ;)

Kudos to Kiscien!
