In short, I hate it, I tossed it out, and I would NOT say it falls under any sort of BDSM safe and sane play.

This product is good for beginners and those whom are in search for a cheap product that packs a sting. For those whom are more advanced in BDSM I wouldn't recommend you waste your money or time on this product.

The Diamond Whip by Cal Exotics is an inexpensive whip with pretty rhinestones decorating the handle. The tails to the whip can provide a variety of sensations, varying from a light tickle to a hard sting, depending on the force you use. The whip is light and very easy to use, which makes it a great product for beginners. The only thing that bothered me was the white backing to the tails and wrist strap. The white backing doesn't affect performance- it just looks cheap.

This is a great flogger for the beginner on a budget. And even when you've become more experienced with flogging, it's still a great toy to keep.

May look like it's poorly made, but holds together well and has proven to be as good as expected in a flogger. Great for beginners and good for experienced users as well.

The Diamond Whip (flogger really) is simply amazing. It gives a wonderfully pain / pleasure sting and just looks so stylish to me. I love the rhinestones on the handle of the product and I really like using it solo and with a partner. I love how it leaves beautiful red marks / patterns on my skin wherever I use it. I can't tell you how much I love this flogger. Can be for beginners, moderate, or advanced pain lovers and definitely can make you cry if you want that.. like I do.

At $15.99 you can't really argue with this flogger if you're looking for something stylish that at the same time delivers and packs a very nasty sting. For all those who enjoy pain or enjoy causing pain, this is a must have. It will look like an "innocent novelty" but will make anyone under you during a session cry out in pain/pleasure.

I would have to say that The Diamond Whip is cute and pretty to look at from a distance. But to me it just seemed a bit cheaply made and it had no teeth to it at all.

The Diamond Whip, while obviously being more accurately a flogger, is a lovely piece of bling! Beyond the shiny PVC and the plentiful falls this flogger can really perform. It can easily deliver a dull thudding type blow all the way to a whistling stinging blow that will garner delighted screams. It is wonderful for the beginner still learning how to develop control and refine technique. This isn't the top of the line but it will provide many years of good use with even just a modicum of care.

More of a teaser than a whip, Bound By Diamonds has a lot to offer besides the whipping experience. The stinging/cutting sensation of the whip when used with force makes me not recommend it for beginners, but you can find many other ways to play with it as I have.
