Roger, that is a nice looking whip.
I remove my reservations on the handle. It looks cool.
I would not have chosen the rose color but the charcoal is really nice.
Good job. :)

It's ok if you disagree with me.
I can't force you to be right.

I've gotta say, that's the most unique handle and transition knot design I've ever seen on a whip O_O

Nice one, Roger, I admire your transition knot and the handle is pretty badass too!

I'm sorry it doesn't meet your standards on the stiffness though. Might I suggest an exowhips inspired outer carapace? I did that - a french vine - on a snake of mine that needed some weight and it did wonders.

That's (k)not a bad idea Erik. I might whip off that transition knot and replace with a longer TH.

Really well done Roger- Personally, I would keep it as a reference and to enjoy, and try for a stiffer transition on the next one, and then you'd be able to compare them.

Thank you Tyler. You've put in in perspective for me. That's what I'm going to do! :)

Roger that is a lovely looking whip, I particularly like the hint of colour in the start of the thong which quickly is dropped away, you don't see many whips with such a simple but so neat design.

I'm sorry that it doesn't meet your required stiffness, but as Tyler says, it will be a nice reference for future whips.

Thanks all for the compliments. Not being a 'seller' of whips really allows me to experiment and not panic if it all goes 'south'!

Man that is an awesome looking whip you are a natural artist the way that you were thinking outside the box on the handle design.

Wow Johnny, thanks <blushes>

I really just wanted to try something a little different.
