Heavy in the hand, solid, and detailed. The mouthpiece is comfortable and easy to seal. The sound is intense and carries across our whole yard. You can tell a lot of care went into making this.
I use instruments in meditation and sound work, and this whistle adds a really powerful, otherworldly element. It’s not just a novelty – it feels like a serious, intentional piece of craft.
This thing definitely scares people. I used it outside at night and got some real screams from my friends. The sound cuts through the air and hits differently when it’s dark out. It’s fun to mess around with, just a little less intense than I imagined.
I used this at a friend’s cabin and everyone froze when they heard it. The echo off the trees was unreal. Top notch quality.
Used this at a backyard fire with friends and the whole group went silent when they heard it. The scream is so human it’s unsettling in the best way. Easily one of the coolest things I own.
