Title: I returned from Tijuana with an inexpensive bullwhip, so...
Post by: Captain O on September 08 2019 06:41:19 PM MDT
I went to the "Art Of Whips" on Etsy and ordered a 10-foot black bullwhip (+ an 18" fall) for $89.32 (+ $25.52 shipping from Great Britain) This come to a total of $114.84 shipped to my door.

I haven't had a decent blacksnake bullwhip in my hands since my daddy died in 1975. This should be a lot of fun and prove useful for lots of things (you can carry a whip where you can't carry a gun or a knife).

Cool stuff, eh?

I added this 10-foot Paracord bullwhip to my collection.

It cant rot and should be a great deal of fun.

Thank you. These are to be worked and enjoyed as tools and in conjunction with others. (I never thought too much of the whole "Indiana Jones" cinematic malarkey).

So many believe that these belong in the "dustbin of history" when they are still very much alive and in current use. I really like the 550 Paracord 10-foot Bullwhip. These can be had for $89.00 on Etsy from Acapulco Joe's in Winchester, California. They won't rot. Both the fall and cracker can be replaced when they wear out.

Try it, You'll enjoy it.

The recent acquisition of the Horse Quirt (Black). rounded out my collection. The Horse Quirt coils up nicely in my  sports jacket pocket and virtually "dissappears" until I call upon it.

It is quite a handy "accessory"!
