Don't be shy around this little slapper!

The Fetish double slapper is the perfect beginner paddle. It's a wonderful toy for couples or individuals who are curious about spanking but aren't sure how far they want to go. This paddle may look intimidating with it's thick black leather and metal studs, but the bark is worse than the bite. It is also appealing to advanced spankers because of it's no nonsense style. It can be used lightly or harshly depending on the pain tolerance of the spankee.

It is most commonly used for spanking on the ass though it can be administered to slap firmly on just about any fleshy region: breasts, thighs, or genitals. It causes a sensation much like a hand slap, since it covers a large area, and leaves a penetrable sting where it is applied.

Personally, I really like the design and shape of this paddle. The handle is long and thick to easily grip and control when situations become heated. The thick leather and metal studs give this paddle an industrial air which is both alluring and frightening at the same time. The split design makes this paddle audibly delightful. No matter how hard the impact, the leather pieces slap together to make a sound that is sure to surprise. The cut out heart shape is sweet but doesn't always leave an impression. A thin leather strap is attached at the end of the paddle for storing on a hook after use, or to slip around the wrist when the going gets tough.

It is 12 1/4 inches long, and 3 inches wide. I think the stitching around the edges is consistent and well done. This toy has lasted me a long time, at least 6 months and has yet to tear its stitching or warp. It's thick, durable leather. It's certainly not a throw away item, or something to hold you over until you can get something of "higher quality." It's reasonably priced for the amount of quality you are receiving with this product. The leather is soft, smooth, and rather sensual when rubbed against skin. It's a pleasant juxtaposition with the sharp slap that is sure to follow.

This paddle is amazing. It's great for spanking, and I also found it useful during cock and ball torture sessions. I was surprised that it worked so well even on highly sensitive areas. It is a rather flexible paddle so it can be used swiftly and rapidly which is a technique I use during "warm up." I slap the tip of the paddle quickly in succession to get the blood moving before advancing to more intense toys. The pointed tip of the paddle is handy for a bit of sensation play during spanking. I enjoy dragging it along the skin before delivering a hard smack.

This toy is made of leather so it can be relatively easy to clean. Usually, it can be cleaned with a damp cloth. However, if it becomes dirty from sweat or bodily fluids it may be useful to clean it with an antibacterial wipe (Clorox brand, etc.) after play. Especially when using it on different partners. To keep the material from "drying out," I treat my paddle with a wipe that cleans and conditions the leather (Method brand, etc). Though the conditioning wipe alone would be fine after using this paddle with the same partner, just to keep the leather soft and pliable, it does not give me the sterility that I need when playing with different partners.

Be sure that you understand the situations in which you are using your paddle, and how to clean it appropriately.

The leather strap attached to this paddle can make it more accessible and easily stored on a hook on a wall or in a vertical display case. During travel to a play party or group session, it is small enough to fit into a purse or duffle bag.

Although this toy certainly does -not- vibrate I took the liberty of filling out the "Vroom" and "Bee" rating. On a scale of 1-5 for sensation or "Vroom" I gave it a 3 since the sensation caused by this paddle is moderate in general. On the sound scale or "Bee" I gave it a 4 since the loud sound of this smack happy paddle could definitely be heard through a closed door.
