6-foot, 12 plait, kangaroo hide whips. 3 bellies, traditional 8-strand fall hitch, 24-inch falls, 8 inch B55 crackers, 8 part x 5 bight, 3-pass heel knots over a latigo and lead foundation. 5x4, 2-pass, transition knots. The black and natural has a bird's eye pattern over the transition, and the burgundy and natural whip has a gaucho pattern at the transition. Of interesting note is the difference in color placement makes on the gaucho plait. If you use a single color the pattern appears to be arrowheads encircling the whip. If you use two colors with all of one color on one side and the other color on the other side in comes out as rings around the whip. If you alternate the colors down the whip you get lightning bolts running down the whip.
