EVERYTHING A WHISTLE SHOULD BE! Flawless workmanship with precision like a Swiss watch. Just the right amount of breath, just the right amount of chiff, easily glides through both octaves. Comfortable to play. Physically heavy on the top but this does not impair playing in any way - just something to get used to. I love the sound of brass whistles and this one is amazing! Love it. Love it. Love it!

I love the weight of the whistle. I have been wanting one that felt like it had real substance for a couple of decades now and I finally have one. The tone is crisp and clear. It easily gets the high notes. It looks great too. I would definitely buy more of this brand in the future.

Love this whistle! I've only started playing the penny whistle a couple months ago; I had purchased a couple cheap ones online, to see if I liked the endeavor enough to stick with it. While I loved playing, I quickly became frustrated by the limitations of the cheaper whistles, not the least of which was that they were not in tune with themselves -- very hard on the ear. So, based on a review from CutiePie (on YouTube), I ordered the Killarney Brass D whistle, and I couldn't be happier. Not only is it beautiful, it plays wonderfully, sounds lovely and I'm not having any problems hitting notes in both the low and high registers. Fingering is also much more straight forward; no alternate fingering needed to play the notes above the high D. As some will tell you, the whistle is heavier than the cheaper ones, but I actually find this helpful, because it doesn't jump around in my hands as much as the cheaper ones. I'm enjoying this one so much, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I order the whistle in other keys.

Timely delivery. I was worried about ordering during the Christmas season, and all the way to Minnesota, USA. But no issues, it arrived and I’m very happy with my purchase!

Golden! Newby to whistle but love the instrument: clear tone, easy in the high register and fun to play. I use it to improvise with but am still learning.

Great item. Bought this for my wife as a Christmas present and she couldn’t be happier. The tone and playability of the whistle are definitely a vast improvement on her previous whistle. Thank you.
