    I own two whips. One is a plain neoprene lash whip which is what I use regularly, if such a thing is to be used. The other is a handmade 6 plait roo leather stockwhip, and it’s gorgeous. Absolutely suitable for cattle, and is used mostly as a display piece or for cracking at parties. 😆

    The truth is OP is right Lomp hit nearer to the handle than would be done for a maximum lashing. OP is wrong that it was because Lomp doesn’t know what he’s doing or just because it’s fake porn or whatever. That’s a real whip and the model is a real person and he’s keeping things legal. Actual torture - like actual snuff - is frowned upon by authorities.

      The handmade whip sounds super cool. I’m not knowledgeable about leatherworking, but how difficult was that to make?

      Edit : I misinterpreted handmade as homemade 😂

      That’s a real whip and the model is a real person and he’s keeping things legal. Actual torture - like actual snuff - is frowned upon by authorities.

      I actually typed an argument about crossing the threshold between consenting adults doing kinky things and illegal and torturous activities but removed that bit because it’s a bit tough to define where the line is and I figured it would fall on deaf ears. It’s important to always be mindful of this though for more extreme scenes.

        I didn’t make the whip! No. At the time I lived in Australia and there was a well known guy who made whips for actual cattle ranchers but had a side hustle making kink toys too. I think kinksters found him and when he realized it he just accepted them as another income stream. Anyway, that’s how I got it.

          Yeah I realized my mistake shortly after posting! I mistook handmade for homemade in your comment.

          I’m glad he leaned into the opportunity. I have to imagine kinksters and collectors likely will pay more than a rancher so it probably works out quite well for him if the work is quality!
