There's just something about a long, heavy bullwhip. I like other kinds of whips too, but a good, solid Bull is definitely my go-to. :)

Now that's a cool looking whip. It's kind of sad that most people seem to want patterns and flashy color combinations, so this is a very refreshing sight. I'm a firm believer in the "less is more" paradigm so this is very much something I would like to own myself too. I bet all that blue looks great in flight :)

Congratulations on a job well done!

Very nice Bobbi. I've never made a whip as long as that. The thought of all those cords tangling around my feet... :(

Thanks everyone. I was super nervous making it. I'm so relieved that the guy was happy. The next whip that I made after this one was a 5 foot 12 plait and it felt very much like plaiting a pencil compared. :)

Love the color combo Bobbi, subtle and striking at the same time. Nice job!

That Valkyrie is sooo awesome... If I ever get enough money to buy one, that will be among the top of my color list.

Well... Not that lucky really. Whoever stole it is now the proud "owner" of a beautiful one-of-a-kind whip that anyone who knows Bobbi's work can recognize without even touching it, so good luck showing it off or selling it. Although I wish the thief would be dumb enough to try.

Oh I love the cherry chocolate one. So pretty. Someday, I am gonna have a Bobby HolyOak whip of my own. It will happen. :)

I love, how you play with colors. Especially on the 8 footer. Your designs are beautiful. I would hang your whips on my wall just to look at them every day.
I'm a big fan of your work, Bobbi and I'd like to quote Jessica:

Bobbi: I saw all of your new pictures on Facebook. Very lovely whips. I really like your handle pattern on the six foot.
