Pictured
above: 16 plait
Whiskey 4ft pocket
snake whip.
MidWestWhips'
standard single
color snake whips
make a smart and
useful addition to
anyone's whip
collection.
The main draw of
the snake whip is
that the full
braided length of
the thong is
flexible - there
is no stiff handle
section like on a
bullwhip.
After some gentle
use, the shorter
snake whip will
begin to naturally
break in and
easily coil
tighter to fit
compactly in a
cargo or coat
pocket. For
this reason, the
shorter snake
whips are often
called "Pocket
Snakes" and will
become the most
easily portable
whip of all your
collection.
Whether you prefer
these small whips
for self-defense
or just for fun,
MidWestWhips snake
whips are made
from the highest
quality vegetable
tanned kangaroo
hide, are
loaded with fine
#12 lead shot, and
feature an
all-leather
core.
Standard, pocket
and full-size
snakes are
available in 8, 12
and 16 plait and
feature a sturdy
6x7 turkshead butt
knot. Other
knots and plait
counts available
upon special
request (see our Custom Designs
page - we do
unique knots for
these beautiful
whips
often).
Length is measured
from the butt of
the handle knot to
the end of the
braided thong
(length does not
include fall or
popper).
Please choose from
our standard
colors: natural
tan, saddle tan,
whiskey, brandy,
or black. If
you are looking
for a unique color
or a two-tone
whip, please email
us for
availability and a
price quote.
For custom color
requests, we try
to keep a wide
variety of
tannery-dyed
vegetable tanned
kangaroo hides in
stock including
(but not limited
to!) lemon yellow,
forest green, deep
blue, vibrant
blue, purple,
bright red,
whiskey red,
white,
etc.
Please view our custom designs
page for more
information on
unique colors,
unuque knots, etc.

| 3ft
Pocket Snake
- A favorite
for any
whipcracker
who will be
working in a
confined
space,
indoors, or
with precision
target
work. We
know many
people who
carry one of
these in their
pocket daily,
just so they
can always
have a whip
handy, whether
they are out
in the woods
or sitting in
their cubicle
at work
goofing off. |

| 4ft
Pocket Snake -
Another
great
size
for indoor
whipcracking
and precision
target
work.
Compared to
the 3ft pocket
snake, this
length
increases the
whip's reach
and may help
the beginner
obtain a
louder
"crack," but
it starts to
become a
little more
difficult to
use in a
tightly
confined
indoor
area.
Most indoor
spaces are
still
manageable
though, and
the 4ft is
still a great
size to fit
into your
pocket and
take with you
anywhere once
it has been
gently broken
in through
use. |
