The whip is always the main starting weapon. It is one of Spelunky's two melee weapons, the other being the machete.

The whip extends slightly more than one block, and you can actually kill monsters by whipping them through a 1-block wall.

With many monsters, it's actually safer to jump on them than it is to whip them.
