Here's a shot of my Classic Whip Holders from all four films. The first is a Raiders Slide On and isn't SA. The last three I believe to be SA. What do you think?
This is the Classic Raiders (slide on), the TOD in the middle, and the LC on the right:
$18.00
KOTCS:
$20.00
They can be made for any size whip or in any color that I have available. PM or email me for details.
Thanks,
W.E.

Well I think they look perfect. Why isn't the Raiders holder 'SA'? Do to think you could 'improve it'?

SA for Raiders is technically attached to the belt. This is the next best thing, however. Looks SA but you can take it on and off.

Is the difference in TOD and LC just the length of the tab on the other side of the snap?

Here's the Super Holder.
The Super employs a double wrap design which effectively cinches down on the whip whenever force is applied (or gravity). So the whip stays coiled and in position while you wear it. It's release, however, is just as quick as a normal holder.
$25 any color or whip length.

I have owned Wade's super-whip holder for eight months now in the Raiders color and it is a big leap ahead from my old whip holder that I needed to use a velcro strap with. I have said it before, Wade's gear is great quality and just plain AWESOME!
Thanks,

Great posting wade.
Coincidentally, I was about to start work on an LC whip holder.
Can I get your advice.. what width and length are we talking about?
I estimate 2cm wide with the overall length of the thong as 34cm?
What do you think.
Cheers,
JTW.

JTW-
I use 8-9 oz. leather with a 1" width. The length will depend on your whip size. I grabbed a shot online a while back from LC showing Indy and Sala behind a rock with the Nazi tank in the background during the canyon firefight scene. I can't seem to find it in all of my photos right now though or I'd post it!
It clearly shows the 'thong' on the holder almost cut to the snap top. Maybe a 1/2 inch? It also shows the wire wrapped around the whip to the rear of the holder keeping it coiled. I'll try and find it again but I'm super busy with leather right now and may not be able to take the time.
My LC holder is as close as I can get it to that shot.

I'm liking your stuff....I'm going LC Indy for halloween and need some good gear. Sadly, I don't think I can go SA for the whip hollder...so the super whip holder sounds like a good bet, especially if its just as fast a release as a normal one...

The best thing would be a Super Holder in Bison Brown. This will look the part for LC and keep the whip right where you want it.

Here is the LC belt. Similar to the CS belt but with a different end cut and keeper placement.
You can order direct from me at the shop:
