Very nice Dusty!

Tell me for the knots, do you hand die strands from the same hide, or use leather from another darker hide?
Cheers,

I'm not a fan of the IndyIV whip - but that looks like a very nicely made whip! :whip:

I purchase all my leather in natural and hand dye the strands to the desired colors.

On another note: I have a really good customer in germany who has ordered a 10 ft Indy 4. He also owns a 10 ft Jacka Indy 4.
If he would be kind enough to photograph them together and send me some pictures I would really like to see how they compare in dementions.

Thank you for the compliments, :TOH:
