This looks like Jim Patterson's work, he makes a wicked as hell singletail in a variety of sizes- the tail on the end is very abrasive. The 4' footer is a cool thing to throw; I didn't know there were little quirt ones. Google Patterson Singletail. I have a pair of 19th century dog whips- for big super fit kennels of hunting dogs for bear and bobcat mind you- that are very similar, except the body is shot loaded and one has two lashes. Great for beating girls with- I like being hit with them too. On Ebay there's a seller called NYLeather who sells these. I've seen them all over, just hadn't paid attention because I need other things first... The one he's using is not the meanest version they come in as far as I know. As for "tax whip", there are some unbeleivably good whip designs from back in the day, before we got enlightened and whips were for barbarians (snarfkle!) This for a riding crop for example, combines the horsehair whisk for brushing flies off and a bat for telling your mount it's time to go- quickly! Excellent idea. Whips did have more practical purposes, you know.
