The craft of leather braiding has long been used to optimize the leather's
original strength, flexibility and thickness, as well as for decorative purposes.
We offer a range of our own production handcrafted braided goods in kangaroo,
from hat
bands through to the bullwhips we
produced for the Indiana
Jones movies.
Our featured item is the No. 455 10 ft. Bullwhip. This whip became an icon when it was so skillfully woven into the story by Glenn Randall, the stunt director for the first movie. It became a recognized part of the Indiana Jones character, and an ongoing factor in maintaining the suspense of the story. Equally as important the association of this whip with these outstanding movies led to a resurgence in interest in whips in movies, stage performances, and in sport whipcracking.
