This paddle is for those looking for a painful, yet pleasurable experience. Those into light BDSM or who don't enjoy larger amounts of pain should probably hold off trying this specific paddle, as it does wield a lot of potential for large amounts of pain. Those who enjoy pain (we masochists are a fun breed), however, will find this to be an amazing paddle for heavier sessions.



The paddle is 16.5" long (the handle accounts for about 6" of its length), and about 3" wide. It is a decently-sized paddle that may not travel very easily for some, but will fit in most suitcases or gym bags. The large handle allowed for a variety of different users to comfortably hold it in their hand. The paddle weighs about half a pound, which adds to the more intense impact of this particular toy.



This paddle features thirty round metal studs on one side, which makes every blow hurt that much more! The studs are secured into the leather pretty well without any sign on them on the opposite side. The backside of the paddle is smooth leather, which makes for great play. I suggest Dominant switch up the use of this paddle by using both sides, making each impact a surprise! This also lets your submissive build up tolerance to the studs.



The backside of this paddle can easily be used as warm-up or for those working up to heavier BDSM. The paddle has a little bit of flexibility to it, but not enough that it lowers the force of impact--just enough for a little slap-back effect.

A thin suede strap is tied around the grommet hole at the end of the handle, so you can hang the paddle if you'd like to. Because of the suede and the fact that the paddle is made of real leather, this particular product is not vegan-friendly. However, those who do not mind using leather toys will love the quality of leather.

I recommend not using the paddle on an area that has been scratched or cut in order to avoid blood exposure and possible health and safety concerns. Because of the studs' nooks and crannies, this would make for difficult cleaning. If the paddle is exposed to any bodily fluids, clean it and avoid using it on any other partner(s). For regular use, you may use a leather cleaner if you have one, but a damp paper towel can be used to clean any dust or dirt off the paddle.

Overall, I was very pleased with the quality and performance of this leather paddle. I enjoy this product a lot, and love having it in my toy box for heavier scenes with my Dominant(s). With heavier use, it did leave marks on me, and I don't normally mark too easily. If you would like to avoid marks, use lightly or try a lighter product. Otherwise, I highly suggest you snag one of these, as they are amazing!

This paddle is one of my most wicked to date. I have a love/hate relationship with it every time I use it in a scene. I highly recommend it to masochists, but warn beginners and those who aren't into actual pain because this thing bites!
