We are proud to offer you whips made  by  
two extremely talented whip makers...

Axel                         The Whip Maker

Axel braids Bullwhips, Signal Whips and
several styles of novelty whips - all of
exceptional quality and beauty.  Axel is one of
the few whip braiders keeping the tradition of
whip plaiting alive in America.  

Paul Nolan

Paul began working with leather when he
was very young and shortly thereafter started
to gain interest in whips.  Paul now produces
specialty whips, such as the Indiana Jones
(TM) style whip as well as designing
bullwhips.   Paul recently produced 12 whips
for the motion picture, The Rundown.  


Following is a brief description of the two
different style whips we have in stock...of
course custom orders are ALWAYS an
option.
 Email us for more information on
custom whips.


Signal Whips

These "single-tails" as they are commonly
known were originally developed for sled dog
racers and are now appreciated by those
who need a compact, accurate and
efficacious whip for indoor use.  The
traditional design employs a cracker plaited
into the end of the whip.

Snake Whips

Snake whips are dynamically similar to
bullwhips and are used in much the same
way, the most obvious difference being the
lack of any stiffening in the handle. Instead
the whip is loaded with lead shot in the butt
end of the thong, how much depending on
the type and size of the whip. The effect is
equivalent to that of a much thicker bullwhip
but with full flexibility - ideal if compact
dimensions are required. Snakes crack
louder and hit harder than bullwhips.
