nylon "zorro" bullwhip

my take on the whip used by Anthony Hopkins in "The Mask of Zorro" movie. It's 16 plait in black paracord and features an engraved ferrule on the handle as well as a matching concho on the heel knot.

And they're bullwhips,so I admit I didn't realize my error. Anyway,I think I'll make a stock whip This week,thanks for the lesson,cudos on your whip making mate.

@CiscoTheMan no need to apologize, no harm done ;) I'd love to see a clip of your stock whip when you're finished. cheers

[CiscoTheMan]

Thats a stock whip not a bull whip,not being a dick,just saying :)

[steph818181]

@CiscoTheMan you don't come off as "being a dick", however you might want to do a little research on what the different styles of whips look like. a stock whip's handle and thong are detachable , and have a swiveling joint at the connection between the two where the 2 keepers are interlocked. a bullwhip (like the one pictured in this video) is made with the thong and handle in one piece.

is that the real one he used or just a replica?

[steph818181]

@Nardath this is not the one he used. This is my interpretation of it made with nylon. The original was a kangaroo hide whip

[weaponeer]

very impressive looking, and I love the interpretation style.

[CiscoTheMan]

Really? Ill definitely put one up haha,it'd be a pretty simple one though,just a four plait cow hide one:) Anyway,keep on the look out and ill see if I can put a video together.

Did a bit of research,and you were right,I had the idea in my head that it was handle length that determined it. However the whips I've made and owned are all relatively short handled,so I apologize. Honest mistake.
