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.

Gio, your work is so elegant! Really great!

Beautiful and elegant work Gio, I like it.

Best wishes,
Mario

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 ...

Vary cool they all are quite beautiful.

Very good work, Gio!

Thank you All!!!

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?

Very beautiful Gio. I am impressed with the twisted taper. It looks very nice.

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...

Your work is so Beautiful, Gio. I really love this one.

Nice piece of work Gio.

Gio, like all your work, this is extremely elegant! Very fine indeed!
