Diamond whip - whip discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by Mistress Jezebel

Don't be fooled by how "pretty and cheap" this flogger looks. Don't let the prince fool you either. This kinky little flogger has one hell of a bite. Take that from someone experienced in the pain section. This flogger would be best used for people who enjoy a really mean sting on their backside. Who said you couldn't be a sexual sadist while managing to still look girly and rockin' with bling and shiny PVC? If you're looking for pain, you've found it.

I would not recommend this flogger to beginners or vanilla couples looking to explore their kinkier side. This is simply because I know for a fact that if used with force, this can really hurt someone more than most whips and floggers I own.

The flogger is mostly made out of shiny black PVC and little black plastic "holders" that hold the Diamonds inside of them so they don't fall out. At first glance this flogger looks like a cheap quality item that most people would instantly discard as a purely novelty item. They wouldn't give it a second thought. Boy am I glad I gave it a chance. It's one heck of a mean flogger and still manages to look sexy in photos.


The handle of the flogger is a very good size in length and diameter. I sometimes seem to have problems with other floggers due to the handle not being long enough, but mostly due to it not being wide enough in diameter. With this flogger, this was definitely not the case. The handle is made of wood that is covered by a layer of shiny black PVC. The PVC has plastic diamond guiders, for lack of a better word, sewn onto it in various areas including running down the center of the flogger and rimming the top and bottom of the handle. I was quite impressed due to the fact that the little diamonds were actually sewn on and not just glued on.


The back of the handle also has an extra sewn on piece of PVC with a D ring. The piece of PVC is roughly one and a half inches long and is sewn on very well, making the D ring attachment sturdy. Note: This whole flogger shines a lot. The photos don't really do it justice due to my camera which refuses to turn the flash off.


Like most floggers and whipping toys, the D ring is attached to a strap which is made of black shiny PVC with a nylon backing. The strap is easily 12" long and is folded in two to allow your hand to go through. You can use it as either a security strap so it doesn't fly out of your hand during prolonged use (something that might happen due to the nature of the material which makes one sweaty if holding it for long periods of time in a warm environment) or you can use it to hang the flogger up in a designated area.


The actual flogger part of this item is made of the same material as the strap is. Each tail is about 12" in length and is made of shiny black PVC with a micro cheesecloth-like backing made of polyester. The strands don't look too pretty when the polyester side shows. That said, it's inevitable that the backs will show because if the back of one tail isn't facing you, the back of another tail will. Each tail is very clean cut and has sharp edges which are no doubt contributing factors to how much this flogger can actually hurt.

I would suggest caution with this flogger. PVC in strips can be extremely painful and there is no exception for this flogger. In fact, it is a given. This flogger will hurt and leave marks on your submissive's backside. If you or your submissive do not enjoy having marks that will feel sore the next day, this is definitely not the flogger for you.

When I received it, I instantly made my slave bend over so I could test it out and he was obviously excited. I was wondering if the flogger would actually be any good and decided to let it rip. By the sound it made and the sound it drew from my slave, I knew I had found a true diamond for a mere 16 bucks. The edges of the PVC tails are what I believe cause the sting. They are somewhat sharp at the bottom and caused my slave's behind to have bright red lashing marks for an hour or so after the session.

Most floggers are fairly easy to maintain and that applies to this one especially because it is made of PVC. PVC is very easy to clean. Anything from an alcohol free baby wipe to warm soapy water will get this clean in no time. However, chances are that this won't be getting too dirty.

The flogger itself is very easy to store. It can be folded into a half an tossed into your clothing drawer. It also has the capability of being hung up if you have somewhere to hang it from. It had a strap attached to the D-ring on the side.

The packaging was minimal as it usually is with floggers and whipping toys. It arrived inside the EdenFantasys box inside a plastic baggie and it was folded in half. Some of the tail falls were a bit bent but I had no problem straightening them out with my fingers. The flogger also had a tag attached to it, as most floggers do, with the name of the product.

If you collect floggers, this will be a great addition to your collection. If you're looking for something tame and not painful, I suggest you move along. The reason I liked this is because I enjoy having floggers that are stingy. That's one of the main things I look for in a flogger and this one was all sting and no thud.
