I was just wondering which whip holder is better the US Wings Lee Kepler whip holder or the Western Stage Props Whip holder?

I am planing to get one for my birthday and I would like to know which one is better.


Thanks! :D

I heard that the snap on the kepler comes undone real easy. Is this true? If it is then I am going with the WSP whip holder. Or does the WSP whip holder snap come undone real easy?

Thanks!

Indiana Wayne, also check out www.Toddscostumes.com.

His whip holder is also adjustable, and the whip does NOT come loose easily! :) (I've tried!)

The WSP whip holder is this one:

It safely secures the whip in the cradle via a snap. There used to be a rotating clasp. In addition, there is a leather lace that you can tie on the whip when carrying it about.

However, it is far from being Indy accurate.

They do sell the whip holder with the gunbelt, which is accurate. It looks like a Keppler:

Not true, unless it's been fussed with. It's a one-way snap.

Thanks Sergei!

I think I will go with the Kepler, since the snap is good and also I don't really need to worry about the whip slipping, because I will usually carry the whip like the scene in the well of souls.

Thanks Everybody!
