Finally got the build figured out for these. I struggled with the "ungutted paracord" core that these are usually made with. I have a 425 tapered twisted core in mine with a very light weight going halfway down instead. I also bound my core and belly making them springy and less erratic and easy to crack. Look familiar? This customer wanted these two whips to look exactly like the practical bull I made a few months ago. My guess is this customer likes vanilla ice cream, the color beige, and watches a lot of public television.
Due to rising costs, dirty deeds are no longer done dirt cheap.

Ron, The english eye is doubled back, hand sewn and bound with waxed Dacron.
Robby and Robert, the guy is boring, unimaginative, safe. He now has 3 whips from me and they are all exactly the same. No rocky road with sprinkles and butterscotch sauce, no action movies, no conspiracy theories, no rock and roll. Snoresville, man.
I now have an order for a Kraken whip. Let's see if I can pull it off.
