Detachable Non-Slip Whip Holsters
At the suggestion and request of one of my many great customers, I came up with this holster design as an improvement upon the Standard Non-Slip Holster. It offers several advantages over the original design.
Non-Slip holsters, by nature, are adjusted for individual whips. For this reason, rather than re-adjusting the holster each time a new whip is worn, many of my customers purchase multiple holsters, one for each of their favorite whips. They like to store their whips retained in the holsters, as keepers. I do this myself aswell. It's very convenient and it keeps the whips from unrolling in storage.
This design is thus best optimized for the purposes of someone who owns multiple whips, all of which he wants to be able to conveniently carry, without having to make adjustments to the holster or remove his belt each time he wants to change what holster or whip he is carrying. The Detachable Non-Slip Holster allows for quick and easy changing of multiple holsters from the same belt loop with just a snap.
One of the many situations where I find this advantageous is while driving. While driving I can easily detach the holster from the belt loop without having to take the whip out of the holster itself. Thus the whip is retained and the belt loop is kept in place aswell.
The holster body is also less bulky than the standard design and therefore it truly does double as a whip keeper. It's less bulky than wrapping your fall. It's also a whole lot quicker and much more secure. The D ring at the top of the holster mounts quickly upon any hook or nail on the wall.
A further advantage of this design is the ability to mix and match belt loops for special purposes. Custom belt loops can be made for the same price as the regular size belt loops and can be used on gunbelts, or any special application. This allows for more versatility when one needs a custom holster to fit on a gun belt or satchel. All you'd have to purchase for your new gun belt or other special mount, is a new loop to fit on it. All your holsters could be interchanged with the new or the old loop. Loops can also be permanently attached to many items. Standard loop size is 1 3/4" but I can make them any size very easily. The belt loop is small and discreet to be carried by itself, and doubles as a key ring retainer.
The Detachable Non-Slip Whip Holster offers all the unique advantages as the standard model, plus more. The belt loop snap is a one way snap, and while it easily unsnaps from the top, it won't unsnap accidentally during any violent maneuver. I tested it and I was going to destroy my belt in pulling, before it even started to come unsnapped! Even when you do unsnap it, you can let the whip drop because the holster ring catches on the rim of the snap every time.
I have one noted disadvantage to the detachable holsters. They hang the whip just slightly lower from the belt, and the whip may swing more during walking due to the D ring's flexibility in acting as a joint.
