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".

This whip looks amazing Rachel and the fact that it's your first (!) leather whip blows my mind!
How does it crack (sorry Ron:) ) ?

All the best

Sorry about the "how does it crack question". By the time I wrote this only Jessie had written a post so far!
I should have known that Ron is too fast for me :) !

All the best

Very nice. I love the look of the leather & the wood - beautiful!
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.

Rachel, that's fabulous! I also note some of the same variations in plaiting that were so striking on your stockwhip for Robby. Really terrific! I much look forward to the video....

That looks very good for a first one. Ofcourse you have a lot of experience with paracord and it shows. Will you be making more leather whips or was it a experiment?

That is simply amazing for your first roo whip, and with the wood handle it's unique. I can't wait to see where you go with leather. It will be super. Congrats lady and thanks for mentioning WN

Thanks for sharing Rachel.
It flows like butter and cracks as easy as a thought.
The "sling" cracked me up and made my day. :)
Both did a good job.

It's ok if you disagree with me.
I can't force you to be right.
