Your whips scream "Indy" if you ask me. Your whips look like great whips yet also look like good tough whips. Some whips look way fragile but yours always seem tough. Great work. That Giovanni looks beat up especially around the thong. How old is the whip? Maybe its just me.

Your whip looks great.
Is there any reason that you tapered handle on the 8ft natural one...just curious?

Thanks folks. I'm a huge fan of Mr. Morgan so I tend to also cut wide strands, giving a tougher look to the whip.
You'd have to ask Erri about the Giovanni whip - he did tell me "I've done terrible things to this whip"
The tapered handle was an experiment - it's too tapered to be an accurate Indy whip, but I actually quite like it - it suits my hand. I think if I were to try the experiment again I wouldn't have such a drastic taper though.

Awesome whip whiskyman!
Your work keeps getting better and better. I really like this one. The turk's head has improved, and well the evenness in the braid. It looks tight, solid, kinkless, and with the wide Strands very Indy (or Morgan).
Looking forward to seeing your next one
Regards,
Bernardo

As I said to Pagey... terrible, terrible things!!!
Well it has been wrapping around
trees, exercising on pebbles and uneven grounds and rarely being greased. Plus I've been using products like shoe polishers and stuff like that.
Is that enough for "terrible things"?
Consider also that it's not a kangaroo
It is indeed very beated up. It's not the time baby, is the usage
Hopefully I'll be able to show a kangaroo at the Eurosummit this year

Here's an 8ft in the same hide. Slightly slimmer thong - more Raiders style, but with wide cut strands.

Very nice Whiskey! I really like that 8ft bullwhip, even more so then the 10ft bullwhip you posted. Great work!
