Hand crafted bullwhips, signal whips (single tails) snake whips, stock whips and other leather whips made in England by a professional whip maker.
 
 
Welcome to English Whips

Bullwhip, signal whip, snake whip or stock whip - it doesn't matter what you use. The first time you make one crack, you'll be grinning from ear to ear. It's like controlling something that is part animal, part magic trick.

I am no longer taking custom orders; or orders for accessories other than crackers (unless listed on my 'In Stock' page).

As of January 2010, I am working through a long list of back orders; which I hope to complete by the end of April. I will, from time to time, have very high quality one-off whips available for sale from my In Stock page; as well as occasional second-hand ones. After April, I think it will probably be time to put English Whips to bed.

Beautiful Modern Craftsmanship in the Ancient English Whip Making Tradition

12 plait English bullwhip in saddle tan.  Without exception, my leather whips are examples of hand-crafted functional beauty, made with pride, designed to give many years of service and offered at a price that reflects the time and skill involved in their construction.

At one time, the English whip making industry produced the finest whips in the world. Many people still feel that the work of the best Victorian whip makers has never been surpassed. In their heyday, there were possibly no more than ten makers producing very high quality whips; and today, the professional British whip maker has almost become a thing of the past.

I do, at times, still offer beautifully crafted items and excellent beginners' whips from the best overseas whip makers. Most of these whips, when available, are offered on my In Stock page. I also occasionally have good quality second hand whips for sale on the same page.

I'm extremely selective in what I offer: as well as making whips, I collect them and use them. I have used hundreds of whips from many of the better known whip makers worldwide, and will not supply whips from anyone unless I would be happy to use it and can offer it at a fair price.

If you don't see what you're after, or need some advice, please feel free to drop me an email: mailroom@whipstore.com. I guarantee to give you unbiased, honest advice, and to never offer you a whip that's not suitable for your needs in order to make a quick sale. Whips and whip making are what I'm all about: my satisfaction comes from making and supplying items of working beauty that will bring lasting pleasure to their owners.
