Fantastic looking whip, I'm sure the new owner will feel exactly the same.

Beautiful work as always Gio... If I had that dog leash, I don't think I would be able to resist putting a fall and cracker on it!

Great work as always Gio. I realize the slight swell at the buckle end of the belt is probably an artifact of back-braiding to attach the buckle, but you even manage to make that look especially cool, like the hood of a cobra in a relaxed state of mind.

Thank you All Guys, yuo are very kind like Always...
by the way Tyler when I have finished braiding the thong i have to admit that it was hard to resist the temptation to finish the braided thong with a fall :-)
Jonathan you'are rigth the slight swell at the buckle end of the belt is a natural consequence of back-braiding ...

Hi Guys,
here we are!!!
I was very busy in these weeks and here one of the whips that I made from September to october.
This is a long handle whip 12 plt roo.
Handle: 80cm
The handle grip was plaited in diamond pattern and the last part of the handle in half harringbone pattern.
The heel knot is a 6b and 11 L one pass
The twisted taperad fall is formed by the same six strands of the overlay.
This whip have a very fast action.
Kind Regards
Gio

Neat piece Gio, does the tapered twist work well in leather?

Very nice work.
What is the reason for the very long handle?

Thanks a lot guys, the twisting fall works well and accurate, re. Long handle was a request of my customer because he wanted a dyfferent style for targeting tricks and his private collection...
