I've just won an ebay auction for one of our very own Louie Foxx's whips!
It's a 12 plait kangaroo, my first, and looks like it'll be a perfect starting fighting whip! I'll post some pics of it when it arrives, but you can see it for yourself over at his site

Thanx Louie, I look foward to your creation!

I'm sure you will enjoy it. Louie is making some really nice looking whips.

Here's a couple of pics of the whip before I ship it out today:
It's a 4 foot bullwhip, so it's pretty fast and if you've never used a 4 foot before, they take a little while to get used to. I made this one awhile ago and it's been sitting on my wall for a a month.
Also I just finished a 6 foot Indy whip with a spring steel handle, you can see pics of that whip on my blog at

Louie,
Thank you very much! Just recieved it today, awesome work! The balance is just right, the handle feels awesome and it cracks like thunder. It's a different feeling with a whip this short, but physics still apply. Now if only Meadow's book would arrive!

Glad you like it. going from a longer whip to a short whip is a huge difference! a 4 foot is soooo much faster than a 8 or 10 foot.
Just for fun, here's a 6 foot indy that I finished a few days ago:

Well today I did two things with my new whip I've never done before:
Put out candles
Cut Cards
And did them again. And again. And again. And the fact I can play with it indoors within reason? Priceless!
