And here is the whip I mentioned with the complex collar- it's complex because there's two layers of collar. The smaller diameter one is 5.5" long, and is plaited over for about 2 inches and then the larger collar fits over it, so there's a lot of extra brass (and weight) on this one. I'm going to shoot some video after work. This one is held by the handle and the hame tip acts as a counter balance for the collars. I think it has a rather nautical look.

It's a 7 foot bullwhip with a 13" handle. Here is the customer's drawing of what he wanted:

Golly, Tyler, that's stunning! And you're right: it does somehow have a nautical look.... :)

Stunning is the perfect description, you executed the customer's plan beautifully! Well done, Tyler, this is a completely individual design. Wow! Nautical, yes!

It's certainly naughty :D

Very nice Tyler. How much weight is in that pommel?

Roger, :) I couldn't say exactly on the weight, I haven't got a postal scale but it's rather weighty. I think this is the best arrangement for this tip, I imagine the balance would feel strange without the collars.

Wow Tyler that is unique and cool. It does look nautical, but add some spikes to that pommel and it will look medieval

And here is a 7 foot exowhip in coyote tan, with emerald green and black on the carapace. This is the first exowhip that doesn't have black or white on the thong!

And here is a 4 foot bullwhip, this is the first time I've used electric blue wavelace and the first time I've combined blue and tan:

That blue is indeed a beauty,
Though I'm partial to the coyote with black and emerald green, wow! Well done again Tyler, and that's a whole new whip with no black or white down the thong!

Thank you Rachel! I wasn't sure about the tan/green/black combo until I saw it, now I really like it.
