The Large Black Rubber Whip is a rubber flogger with 22 inch-long strands. Since it's made a rubber, it's free of animal products and is therefore safe for vegans and vegetarians. This is great, since it's really hard to find BDSM products that are animal-free. Also great is the fact that this is one deceiving little flogger.

When I received this toy, I didn't expect much from it. I thought it might sting a little, but figured that it would be more of a novelty item than anything. else. Plus, I could make myself look much more menacing in pictures if I was holding it. But this thing pleasantly surprised me!

This flogger creates such a range of sensations that is perfect for almost anyone. It can be lightly dragged across your body for soft, subtle, almost ticklish feeling sensations. It can be lightly smacked on someone for heavier sensations, with the thin rubber strands falling nicely. It can be snapped quite hard against someone's skin, having the strands hit full on, creating a nice heavy-ish thud and causing the skin to redden quite quickly. Or, it can be snapped hard against someone's skin, having just the tips hit, causing quite a stinging sensation, and causing much more reddening! In fact, I was surprised at just how much the tips of this flogger did sting!

This isn't a flogger that's going to leave lasting, telling marks, unless you're one to bruise easily. And it's true that I can take much more pain that this thing can dish out. However, it's a great addition to any toy box, from beginners to more advanced players, and is so versatile in the sensations it produces that it can be used in a variety of ways. Plus, it's super affordable, making it something that almost anyone can acquire.

This whip continues to function just like it did when I got it. The only thing I've had trouble with is storing it without having it knot or tangle. As long as I'm uber aware of how I'm putting the toy away, it's great.
