Breaking Canes is nothing New:
Whips
and Whip Making
By W.G. Ashford, Birmingham England 1893
"The
breaking of hollies is a constant source of annoyance, more so perhaps
to the manufacturer who only gets grumbled at than to the saddler
who can charge for the repair. An unsound stick may occasionally
escape detection, but the amount of trying that the sticks get during
dressing and thronging is so considerable that very few rotten or
weak sticks can get passed, the only defect that is likely to get
missed is what is called an "open knot" that is one going
very deep into the wood and such may occasionally overlooked, as
the whip may be smacked in every direc-tion but one and stand it
all right, but if smacked in that one direction, the knot may open,
and the stick will break.
"It
is really astonishing how often, according to the user's account,
the stick broke "the first time I smacked it." It
will be found more often than not, when holly sticks are brought
back broken, that the end of the thong is squeezed and grease-marked,
shewing that it has been caught round the wheel or axle; or that
the thong is scored and marked where it is quilled up, shewing that
it has been against the top of the coach-house door or into some
low hanging boughs in a lane, rather than that there was any real
fault in the stick itself. We know that the saddler very frequently
dare not point out such factors, but he may remind a customer that
the top of a holly whip is not as thick as a lead pencil, and consequently,
although it will stand fair, it will not stand rough, usage."
