Here’s a picture of a new snakewhip I made recently. It is a 4ft x 16 plait and has 5 part, 4 bight turkshed knot with a black pineapple interweave. Please note that tail of this whip is finished with a fall hitch and not a tapering twist. Going forward, this will be Cowwhips.com standard unless someone specifies that they want a twisted tail.
Please note also: This is the last 4ft snakewhip I will make. From now on, all the minimum length for my snakewhips will be 5 feet.

So how do you finish this type versus the tapered twist in your video?

Sorry for the late reply. This whip has a standard fall hitch design and no tapering twist at all.
