This is the Gallery of "Sui Generis Whips" - Jessie Edwards

This new Gallery replaces the former "Masters Gallery", which will work from now on as pure archive. Here you will find not only the work and art from folks who sell whips, but also from folks, who create their whips out of pure passion. And we have an additional gallery. It is called "The Gallery - Making of".

This isn't a new whip. I was simply updating the use and abuse section of my website and took pictures of a well used whip for that page; however,the pictures are kind of interesting...

The sixth one is the best one.
You do make whips that are a work of art and durably functional.

Great photos, Jessie! You've got a real eye for this. :)

I agree with Ron: the sixth picture is my favourite - but they're all good.

Jessie - Your whips are really art, but photographs in this quality are also art in themselves. Those pictures would fit into every wall in an office, kitchen or working room.

The knot is called a half moku. It's a grapevine brought half way around, then reversed and brought the other way to the halfway point.

A whip that gets used is, to me, more beautiful than the fanciest wall hanger. Really good work, Jessie!

Both- the pictures and the whip look amazing, you did a fantastic job Jessie!
The first impression that came to my mind after seeing those pictures was:"that would make an awesome calender or an awesome wall photography".

All the best
Ben

The snow bunny. I kind of got a kick out of the snow packed in the plaiting. This one is going to a never-before-cracked-a-whip cracker in Canada. His first whip crack ever is going to be with a Sui Generis. Hopefully, he loves it.

Great looking whip as usual Jessie.
Your Canadian will be pleased for sure.
It's good that he will have a good well made whip to learn with.

Thank you! I have one customer who says she got a bad whip her first time around, so I just sent pictures of where her whip is at now. She is really happy with the update.

That's the best way to do it Jessie.
It's reassuring to them to see it being made.

Wow, talk about learning to drive in a Ferrari...I hope that she enjoys it. Well done!
I'll give it a try, Dad, but it's going to be really hard...kind of like trying to saw something in half using a banana.
