This is the Gallery of "Wolf Creek Whips" - Rachel McCollough

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".

Outstanding work Rachel !!!

The overal design is very beautiful and I like that you've plaited the overlay in a checkeboard pattern past the handle.
I also love the fact that this whip has so many "tapered elements" with an "eye feature" like the TT after the 4 plait, the TT fall and the tapered cracker - it looks beautiful, it's very user friedly and very functional - WOW !!!


Jessie, thank you for explaning that word paly to the city boy's (as you know, I'm one of them) :) !!!

All the best
Ben

This is one of my most favorite yet.
It goes to Australia.

I know I say this a lot, but if I could afford that whip I'd buy that whip. It's absolutely beautiful, and the Amper Style's maybe my favourite whip I've ever cracked.

Outstanding work Rachel !!!

I love the look of the handle and the way it matches the Acid dark brown paracord - not to mention the flawless plating - perfection at it's best !!!


All the best
