Whip Basics. The Forum

Thank you so much for your kind words Mario, Im very happy you like it

@ Giovanni Celeste:

I love the design of the Hybrid Cow Bullwhip Mr. Celeste - my greatest compliments to your work - very stylish and very functional !!!
Is the twisted portion of the handle flexible (like on your Tamer whip) ?

All the best
Ben

Hi Ben thank you so much for your kind feedback.
The Handle is a very little flexible than the lion tamer style.
There are two reason:
1.the short length of the handle
2. There is a iron spring (where start the core of the whip) inside the twisted core

Thank you very much for your explanation Mr. Celeste !!!

All the best
Ben

Hi All,
Here a Matched pair of 4ft bullwhip.
Shoatloaded core, leather core, plaited belly, bolster and12 plt overlay in roo hide yellow and black dyed by hand
The Whips have been recently made for a Italian customer.
These whips have been enhanced by a series of collars and brass medals engraved.
it was been for me a great and - for some “aspects” - and very challenging experience to work on this project.
In order to make the two whips much more similar not only aesthetically, but especially in the aspect of functionality, the elasticity and weight, each phase of the construction was repeated immediately on the other whip, even numbers of shot in the leather core.
Thank you in advance
Gio

Gio, boy howdy !
Those are beautiful.
Each being a mirror image of the other. I can see how this would be a very challenging build.
Great Job.

Hi Ron, i'm very glad you like it!! Thank you so much!!

Gio - they really do look fantastic. Especially the colors and accents. Plus all the weaves look very tight and perfect. Thank you for sharing.

Your work is so singularly beautiful Gio. I think I could spot your work in a pile of 100 whips. Your's have to be my favorites to look at.

Elegant and beautiful! So sleek and clean as all your work is, just amazing. Well done!

These are pure works of art Gio. Such beauty.

Excellent work Gio, excellent work! I love the elegant style of your whips.

All the best
Mario

Hey Mario, it's good to see you.
I agree. Excellent work.

Ron

Good grief, Gio - how do you do it? One spectacular build after another - and a pair! As Ron says, that must have been veery challenging!

Really exemplary Gio! Did you do the dragons yourself, or did you source that out?

Thank you All for your positive feedback. Re. dragons it was made by a goldsmith.
Thank you again

I'm inspired!

So lovely, Gio!
