Typical crops that are used in BDSM impact/spanking play are stingy but don't really leave marks, and are a good place for beginners to start out. This is not your typical crop though! The Narrow Tip Crop from Spartacus is very long, with lots of spring action to the cane portion, and a very narrow rubber slapper that does nothing to protect you from the severity of the cane. This is a crop that can be as severe as being hit by a cane, since that's essentially what it is, and it will leave bright red marks. It is great to use around the butt, thighs and legs being careful to avoid any vital areas such as kidneys as the rigidity of this and the severity could cause serious harm.

This crop is designed to really last, it is very well made and sturdy. It is made mostly of rubber with a thin leather slapper tip that is almost too small to be felt. This crop is over 36" total length, making it the longest crop I've ever played with, which also makes it very intimidating. The tip is about 3/4" wide at its widest point and narrows down to about 1/2" wide, very narrow. It is thick though in that the leather is doubled over and stitched together to give it a very firm feel with very little flexibility, making this tip almost as painful as the cane portion. The tip is held on by what appears to be about 6" of back wire wrapped tightly around the end of the cane, holding it firmly in place. the cane portion itself is made of a hard material that looks like plastic, but I'm going to assume it is a hard rubber as well as that's the only material actually listed for this item. The handle is a 6" long piece of the cane wrapped in a soft, smooth rubber grip that is very comfortable to hold during use. There is also a rubber wrist strap which is convenient for hanging the crop to store it as the length proves to be a storage challenge.

The materials are very easy to care for, the rubber can be cleaned with mild soap and a damp cloth, as can the leather tip, just be sure that it is thoroughly dried and left to hang to be sure it is completely dried before storing. A small amount of leather conditioner rubbed into the tip may help soften it a bit as well, though with the stitching I doubt it will soften up much!

This immediately became my Mister's favorite crop, he's quite the sadist. And has become the one I fear the most, don't get me wrong, I enjoy my pain with my pleasure but this really pushes my pain limits. Even with very little effort it will sting hard, and leave lovely red stripes across whatever part of the body you choose. This is not for beginners or those not into a good deal of pain, and should only be handled by those experienced with such tools as it could easily cause harm. However in the right hands it can bring intense pleasure as well.

If you're ready to really step up your play time this would be the crop for you! In the mean time I'm looking for a good place to hide it! He likes this one WAY too much! lol
