Quality Kangaroo Leather Whips by Johnny Öhgren

At Witchcraft Whips, we offer world class, bespoke, handmade whips built from the best quality leather and materials available. Beauty derived through looks and function in harmony.

We are very proud to say that our whips are some of the most admirable handling and cracking whips in the world. Owned and used by Enthusiasts, Guinness World Record holders, Performers, and Artists around the globe.

At Witchcraft Whips, each whip is painstakingly and methodically made by hand for each individual customer. These are not the low-quality, mass-produced whips you see in stores and online shops.
This is the real deal.

Johnny has over a decade of experience making whips, and has done so professionally full-time since early 2018. In January of 2023 he was awarded 1st Place Leather Whipmaking Champion in Los Angeles. In December the same year he was inducted into the Bullwhip Hall of Fame and has served as a judge in several whip making competitions. Johnny is also the author of the book How To Make Quality Kangaroo Leather Whips and teaches braiding-/whip-making classes for both professional leather crafters and beginners.

I own and use Johnny’s whips and can say with certainty that his work is top-notch in both form and function. They are beautiful to look at and hold up to my particular, precise, and technical whip-cracking needs. I would recommend his whips to anyone, novice to expert.
