This project was a real invention.  I wanted a handle that was perfectly weightless in appearance, but more than strong. The end result reminded me of a scene in a movie,in which the character had a flaming chin whip.  I chose the colors to emulate that with limited success.  Of course the whip is functional, though at a stage in its own process to not be for sale at this time.  My second try should be more successful.  See more of my work at Suigeneriswhips.com
