I contacted Keanu right after I saw the video, and last night I came home to this:

It's splendid! Keanu, thank you and you did a terrific job! The craftsmanship is excellent- it has that freshly waxed stiffness, I will enjoy breaking it in :)

Ben, your whip is on its way. Just got finished at the Post Offfice. Have I said, I really hate customs forms, because I really hate customs forms. Anyway, it,should be with you in between 6 and 10 days. I'll message you the tracking information asap.

Keanu's looks absolutely splendid, and it was a lovely though for him to include the jerky and coffee too :).

I'm with Jessie. Coffee and a whip?!? It doesn't get much better than that!
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.

I was showing the whip to my wife right after she got home from work and she was a bit tired, when I mentioned you sent jerky and -this was the magic word- coffee she perked up in the funniest way :D

Jesse, free tip: ask for a handful of the customs forms, and then next time you ship a whip out of the US you can fill out the customs form at home, at your leisure with your pipe and coffee, instead of doing it at the PO and getting stressed out. :)

Happy crackin' young man.

OMG, the bow at the end. Too cute!

It's tough for me to tell if he's a pretty good whip handler, or if the whip just wants to fly and crack. I suspect, however, it's a bit of both. ;)
