I purchased the Sjambok whip 42" recently and have found it to live up to its claim for quality. It is very tough, flexible and tapered from the handle to the tip .The handgrip is good as it will not slip out from your hand when it is needed for self defence from deadly snakes and we here in Australia have the most deadly snakes in the world. This sjambok has already come to the defence of my dog who out of curiosity went to investigate a snake when out on a regular walk. The outcome is sjambok 1, snake 0. I do look forward to the 54" Sjambok coming available for purchase as the extra reach can only increase the safety margin from attacks from deadly snakes

Having purchased the 54”version of this I decide to go ahead and purchase the 42”. version. I Have to say the shorter version is more compact and controllable while the longer version has a longer reach.which is a better option of your out walking in the bush.

I have to be honest I have a couple of these one for the house, and one for the vehicle. Probably one of the better anti theft devices I own.

Cold Steel has been making this product for many years and the vast majority of reviews are positive. It is a replica of a traditional sjambok and could be used as a non-lethal last resort to deter a dog attack if you live in an area where dog on dog attacks are a problem. Its defensive advantage is its length and swinging force. However it will stand out in a public place so cannot be recommended for public display. It is not rigid enough to use as a walking pole/stick and I replaced the cheap plastic holding loop with a strip of leather.

Awesome whip, great price really for a sturdy piece that is worth having just for the hell of it. Amazed at how hard it hits with a flick of the wrist. I definitely wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of it. Handle is slightly uncomfortable but not uncomfortable enough to not get it for this price. Apparantly these are good against snakes which in australia is handy. Would have given a 5 out of 5 if the handle was a bit more comfortable, what you see is what you get. Good thing to stock extac, well done.
