This crop, and crops in general, I do not recommend for beginners. This crop produces quite a bit of bite with little effort from the wielder and should only be handled by those who know their own strength. This crop will not break skin, but can bruise it's victim. The marks this crop leaves behind are clearly star prints.

This toy was was very well made an it extremely sturdy. I have literally spanked someone until my arm was tired of it and the star never came off and I never cracked or snapped the shaft of the crop. The shaft of the crop has a slight bit of bend too it, but it always resumes it's initial upright position.

All together, this toy is 25" long and weights a whopping 0.2 pounds. The handle of the crop looks as though it is made of leather and can accommodate any hand size. The leather handle itself is 7" long and has a leather band, measuring about 14" from end to end, that can rest atop the handle, or be wrapped around your wrist to ensure you never swing too hard and lose it. Between the star and your handle you have 14 1/2", with 12 1/2" of that being roped over. The last two inches attach your star to the whip. From the bottom left point, to the top left point of the star is 3 1/2".

This crop performs beautifully. It is light weight, easy to swing, and makes a wisp sound as you fling it in the air. This crop is also pretty amazing at not just leaving welts or prints, but it leaves notable star prints. This is the perfect toy for a person who loves stars and spanking their lover. When it hits skin, it gives you that loud pop noise that lets you know you just got a good hit in.

I cannot speak highly enough about the quality of this crop. I mean, I have really used this bad boy and it is still in perfect condition. I have never been more pleased with the prints left behind on a lovers bum than I am with the marks made by this crop.

I have to recommend against this crop for those who are not into pain. This crop produces a lot of pain with very little effort from the wielder. The faint of heart may find this crop is more power than they desire.

You would have to be trying to get this crop dirty to do so. But, should lube or semen happen, you can use a damp cloth to blot or wipe it off. I recommend against submerging this crop into water. Water may damage the rainbow paint or the integrity of the innards.

Since it is so long, it is a bit difficult to store. When choosing a place to store your crop, keep in mind bending it anywhere could damage the agility of the crop. I am storing mine in my dresser, where it can fit laying down. Should you bend the shaft(stick portion), you may crack or permanently bend it. If you even bend the star, it may never stand proudly atop the crop anymore. Store it where it can stand or lay without being bent. How you choose to store this crop will effect it's longevity.

This Star Crop lacked a real package. Instead, it is shipped to you inside an unsealed plastic bag. Attached to the handle is a small card that tells you the manufacturer, Ruff Doggie Styles, and little else. The card and plastic bag can be recycled, so please set out as such.

I love this crop. It is my sexual weapon of choice. My arm never seems to get tired because it is so lightweight and I can never seem to get enough of seeing stars on my lovers ass.
