His whips are very well made and look great too. What length have you chosen?
I'm looking forward for pics, I'm never tired of looking at awesome whips

Ive gone for an 8ft. Since ive never used a real whip before i thought an 8ft would be a good place to start

Riku whips are very nice! Have fun with your new whip.

8 ft. seems like a great length for general use (although maybe I'm biased

). Sounds like a great style and color--looking forward to seeing pics of your whip!

Best wishes,
Nebraska Schulte

Looks great! I like the proportions between handle and knob.

You'll certainly enjoy it.

I love the rich colour and the slight taper in the handle

That handle and the knots are perfectly proportioned! Nice work.

Happy cracking!

Riku for sure does great work. Exceptional talent in such a short time. Enjoy, she'll outlast you if you take good care of her!

I've asked if I could take it for a spin but MTATL hasn't answered my PM....

Hee hee.....

That exciting moment when you know your whip is in the post and on its way

Ohio Jones · Post by **Ohio Jones** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 12:03 pm

That looks awesome!! Does be have a website?

riku1914 · Post by **riku1914** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 12:23 pm

I think it's appropriate now to comment

I always feel weird commenting on threads made about my whips

First of all, Morethanatimelord, thanks for the business! I hadn't had any whip orders in almost two months before you contacted

me and I was really itching to make a whip

Second, thanks for everybody's kind words about the whip. As always I really enjoyed making the whip, it's something I just love

doing, and the fact that I can make a little money on it, and get whips to the forum members is just awesome! The whip turned

out very well, and I must say it cracks effortlessly!

Ohio Jones, I do not have a website. I make whips as a hobby whenever I can. This gives me the opportunity, not only to have

more freedom over what I make ( when it's not an order ) but also I'm able to give you guys little wait time. For instance,

morethanatimelord didn't want a 3+ month wait time for his whip, and me having no current orders helped both of us out!

Thanks again to everybody that complimented the whip, and thanks again mtatl ( that's how I'm going to refer to you now

as that's a LONG name

) for the order, I really appreciate it

If anybody has any specific questions about the construction of the whip or anything else for that matter, just pm or email me

and I'll be happy to answer

morethanatimelord · Post by **morethanatimelord** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 6:51 pm

I honestly cant thank you enough for making the whip

I was pretty much stuck on where to go when looking for a whip as all the main vedors had long waiting lists and i wasnt prepared to wait months and months. Riku offered me a very good deal and a very small wait time and as you can all see he has made a high quality whip

riku1914 · Post by **riku1914** » Fri Apr 06, 2012 9:14 am

Well, thank you and you're welcome

morethanatimelord · Post by **morethanatimelord** » Tue Apr 10, 2012 4:22 am

Its arrived!!!

The whip is absolutely stunning, wonderful workmanship and i love the colour

Final pic for this thread. I plan to take this whip out when we have some better weather here in the UK and crack it. I'll take much better photos then and hopfully some video so I'll start a new thread for that. If anyone has any questions about the whip just send myself for Riku1914 a message. He's a great guy and as you can see makes great whips

Managed to crack this a few times today. It cracks really well and very loud, even for a novice like myself

. Still, i have loads of practise to do before i cn get it to crack at its full potential
