Argentine bullwhip
This seems to be an old whip which was re-worked. The bent area has a steel core which is totally stiff. It was said that the bow is intended, but in my opinion it was an accident. The newly made handle can be pulled off, revealing a sharp spike. The curved part and the whip itself is made of finely plaited rawhide. (05/15/2003)
