Bull whip makers in the uk

Post by indiana harrison »

hi i,m new to theses forums
just thought you may be interested in this http://www.cobrawhips.com
i bought my bull whip from this guy a couple of years ago
he custom makes bullwhips and is very helpful and is based in the uk
i told him that i wanted a indy whip and was able to make me one that looks very similar to the film ones for a very reasonable price
the price depends on how long you want it and the number of plats
any way it,s worth a look
let me know what you think
i will post a pic of mine soon

Alex's whips are truly nice but the cost are similar to David Morgan's. Show a pic, I'm very curious.

Hello and welcome!

That does indeed look like a nice whip.

Are the prices comparable to Morgan?

i honestly cant remember what i paid it was a couple of years ago
i know it was a lot cheaper maybe half the price of a morgen whip
he could have made one similar to a morgen whip but the price would have risen
i am more than happy with mine it is very good quality
it looks very similar to indys whip in style
the price depends on how many plats and length of whip
mine is a 10ft
