How much is an IOAB bullwhip?

Post by AlexL3000 »

Now I have sent a PM to Adam about this but I know he is very busy at the moment so I was wondering if anyone here could help me. I want to know now so that when he starts making them again I have the money for it as soon as he starts. I want his 8 Ft IOAB. I would also like to know if ordering it in tan with a darker ring knot changes the price. Thanks to all who help me! :whip:

I believe they were a little over $100. I'm not 100% sure, though. If you contact Adam, maybe you can work something out so he can make you a whip now.

Alex,

Last time I asked him, some months ago, the price was $160.

Thanks Dave and Bernardo!
And Bernardo, the whip you made me is so amazing! I LOVE IT! I can't wait for it to stop snowing here (we just got a big snow storm, its still snowing) so i can go out and crack it.

I agree Alex,
Bernardo does indeed rock, the KOTCS whip I purchased via Robby is absolutely fast and precise! My new fave \:D/



Crack On! :whip:

Hey Alex, You may consider a synthetic whip for snowy weather conditions. They are immune to moisture and cold. Reasonbly priced too. I've gotten a lot of practice this winter with my Karaka whip. Thus saving my IOAB for nicer days. Just a thought.

Thanks raider 57, I was also thinking of getting a nylon bullwhip for more inclement weather. That is not why I'm getting an IOAB though lol :) I just want to get that first, then I will get the nylon bullwhip. Winter in Connecticut is not good for going outside with a leather whip :cry: ................lol :)

Yep ,That's really the route I took too. The synthetics are worth it , when you can work it in the budget.

I just email him about a 2 months ago and he told me that he was no longer the IOAB whip. Looks like I have to send him another email.

Hi guys,
I don't want to sound like I'm trying to sell you guys my whips, I don't like sounding like that lol, but I make 4 plait Indy budget whips. Check out http://www.midlandwhips.com/cow-hide-indy-whips.php I also dye the leather myself so I offer the CS 4plait version. Just a heads up for you guys :TOH:

I made a couple IOAB whips this past winter, though the performance season has started again so I'm not making any whips at the moment, just doing lots of whip cracking.

I have no idea when I'll get a chance to make whips again, so I don't have a waiting list or anything.
