Whips can be used for <a href="/wiki/Flagellation" title="Flagellation">flagellation</a> against humans or animals to exert control through <a href="/wiki/Pain_compliance" title="Pain compliance">pain compliance</a> or fear of pain, or be used as an audible cue through the distinct <a href="/wiki/Whipcrack" class="mw-redirect" title="Whipcrack">whipcrack</a> effect. The portion used for striking is generally either a firm rod designed for direct contact, or a flexible line requiring a specialized swing. The former is easier and more precise, the latter offers longer reach and greater force. Some varieties, such as a hunting whip or lunge whip, have an extended stock section in addition to the line. </p><p>Whips such as the "<a href="/wiki/Cat_o%27_nine_tails" title="Cat o' nine tails">cat o' nine tails</a>" and <a href="/wiki/Knout" title="Knout">knout</a> are specifically developed for <a href="/wiki/Corporal_punishment" title="Corporal punishment">corporal punishment</a> or <a href="/wiki/Torture" title="Torture">torture</a> on human targets. Certain religious practices and <a href="/wiki/BDSM" title="BDSM">BDSM</a> activities involve the self-use of whips or the use of whips between consenting partners. Misuse on animals may be considered <a href="/wiki/Animal_cruelty" class="mw-redirect" title="Animal cruelty">animal cruelty</a>, and misuse on humans may be viewed as <a href="/wiki/Assault" title="Assault">assault</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Use">Use</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Whip&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Use"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Whips are generally used on animals to provide directional guidance or to encourage movement. Some whips are designed to control animals by imparting <a href="/wiki/Discomfort" class="mw-redirect" title="Discomfort">discomfort</a> by tapping or <a href="/wiki/Pain" title="Pain">pain</a> by a full-force strike that produces <a href="/wiki/Pain_compliance" title="Pain compliance">pain compliance</a>. Some whips provide guidance by the use of sound, such as cracking of a <a href="/wiki/Bullwhip" title="Bullwhip">bullwhip</a>.

Stockwhips are primarily used to make a loud cracking sound via special techniques that break the <a href="/wiki/Sound_barrier" title="Sound barrier">sound barrier</a>, to move livestock (cattle, sheep, horses, etc.) away from the sound.

Today, it is used primarily by <a href="/wiki/Stockman_(Australia)" title="Stockman (Australia)">stockmen</a>. Unlike the short, embedded handle of a bullwhip, the stockwhip handle is not fitted inside the lash and is usually longer. A stockwhip's handle is connected to the thong by a joint typically made of a few strands of thick <a href="/wiki/Leather" title="Leather">leather</a> (which is called a keeper). This allows the whip to hang across a stockman's arm when not being used. The handles are normally longer than those of a bullwhip, being between 38 and 53 cm (15 and 21 in). The thong can be from 1 to 3 metres (3 to 10 ft) long. Stockwhips are also almost exclusively made from tanned <a href="/wiki/Kangaroo" title="Kangaroo">kangaroo</a> hide. </p><p>The Australian stockwhip was shown internationally when lone rider <a href="/wiki/Steve_Jefferys" title="Steve Jefferys">Steve Jefferys</a> reared his <a href="/wiki/Australian_Stock_Horse" title="Australian Stock Horse">Australian Stock Horse</a> and cracked the stockwhip to commence the <a href="/wiki/2000_Summer_Olympics" title="2000 Summer Olympics">2000 Sydney Olympic Games Opening Ceremony</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Bullwhip">Bullwhip</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Whip&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Bullwhip"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951" /><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Bullwhip" title="Bullwhip">Bullwhip</a></div> <p>A <a href="/wiki/Bullwhip" title="Bullwhip">bullwhip</a> consists of a handle between 20 and 30 cm (8 and 12 in) in length, and a lash composed of a braided thong between 1 and 6 metres (3 and 20 ft) long. Some whips have an exposed wooden grip, others have an intricately braided leather covered handle. Unlike the Australian stock whip, the thong connects in line with the handle (rather than with a joint), or even engulfs the handle entirely. At the end of the lash is the "fall" and cracker or popper. The fall is a single piece of leather between 25 and 76 cm (10 and 30 in) in length. During trick shots or target work, the fall is usually the portion of the whip used to cut, strike, or wrap around the target. The cracker is the portion of the whip that makes the loud "sonic boom" sound, but a whip without a cracker will still make a sonic boom, simply not as loud. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Other">Other</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Whip&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Other"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a9/Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg/250px-Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="101" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a9/Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg/330px-Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a9/Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg/500px-Tropenmuseum_Royal_Tropical_Institute_Objectnumber_1336-6_Zweep_van_balata.jpg 2x" data-file-width="700" data-file-height="322" /></a><figcaption>A whip made of <a href="/wiki/Balat%C3%A1" class="mw-redirect" title="Balatá">balatá</a>, made prior to 1939</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Whip,_possibly_Native_American,_Plains,_late_19th_century,_50.67.38.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Whip%2C_possibly_Native_American%2C_Plains%2C_late_19th_century%2C_50.67.38.jpg/250px-Whip%2C_possibly_Native_American%2C_Plains%2C_late_19th_century%2C_50.67.38.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="112" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Whip%2C_possibly_Native_American%2C_Plains%2C_late_19th_century%2C_50.67.38.jpg/330px-Whip%2C_possibly_Native_American%2C_Plains%2C_late_19th_century%2C_50.67.38.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e3/Whip%2C_possibly_Native_American%2C_Plains%2C_late_19th_century%2C_50.67.38.jpg/500px-Whip%2C_possibly_Native_American%2C_Plains%2C_late_19th_century%2C_50.67.38.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1536" data-file-height="785" /></a><figcaption><i>Whip</i>, possibly Native American, Plains, late 19th century, horsehair and rawhide, <a href="/wiki/Brooklyn_Museum" title="Brooklyn Museum">Brooklyn Museum</a></figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Drafting_whip.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/80/Drafting_whip.JPG/220px-Drafting_whip.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="25" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/80/Drafting_whip.JPG/330px-Drafting_whip.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/80/Drafting_whip.JPG/440px-Drafting_whip.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1914" data-file-height="219" /></a><figcaption>Drafting whip (or cattle drafter) made by George Woolnough, the famous "<a href="/wiki/Tenterfield,_New_South_Wales" title="Tenterfield, New South Wales">Tenterfield</a> Saddler"</figcaption></figure> <p>There are other variations and lengths of stock whips.
