The recent release of the Blackcat figurine gave me inspiration to make this whip.
The handle is made from bamboo and the lash is made from braided cord. I've inserted a galvanised steel wire core through the center to make it easier to pose. I first tried a fairly thin wire (0.7mm) but it was too hard to thread through the center of the cord (it kept poking through the sides) and it didn't open up the braid enough to make a realistic-looking whip. Then I used a 1.2mm wire and it worked much better.
