This is the most unique gentleman's hunt whip we have ever seen. The handle is of a silver tone carved horn form. The detail is exactly that of a carved horn and very substantial. The handle measures almost 5 1/2" long and is very securely attached to a collar that is further securely attached to the braided leather shaft. The shaft is 2 3/4" in circumference, and the leather receiver is stitched nicely with a bit of roughness to one corner. The entire whip from the top of the handle to the bottom of the receiver is 24 1/2" long. The braided leather is well intact and attached to the receiver with a strongly stitched connector. A thong is not included. Make this one your own, or give as a most appreciated gift to the foxhunting man in your life.
