Crops riding crops are used by

jockey's and horse riders, they

are usually made leather or nylon

plaited round a flexible core with

a small leather slapper on the end.

Bats are similar to crops, but

with a larger tab on the end.

Canes are made from bamboo,

reed or rattan, although there

are now metal versions available.

The traditional school masters or mistresses cane had a curved

handle, but these days a straight

handle is used more often than

not. It is interesting to note that

the caning fetish is one the few diminishing fetishes, as corporal punishment in the school system

has been phased out, so has the

number of people acquiring the

caning fetish.

Paddles are traditionally made

from one or two pieces of leather,

they vary in size according to

personal preference, some are

plain, others have studs or holes

in the leather. The more modern

versions of paddles are made

in materials such wood, rubber

and light weight metals eg.

aluminium.


All of these items should be used

with the up most caution,

excessive use could cause

permanent damage. Often the

sexual pleasure of being flogged, whipped, caned, or paddled can

mask the pain that would

indicate serious injury.

You should learn proper safety procedures before using

floggers, whips or paddles.
