Bondage Boutique Heavy Duty Leather Paddle

Received this paddle from LH in the usual fast discreet way which is standard with all deliveries.

I wanted a new paddle for my boyfriend to try out on me, wanted to expand our range of paddles, and Bondage Boutique seem to fit our criteria.

Plus the added bonus of selecting this range is you get a Bondage Boutique Loyalty Card when you have got 10 stickers you get a free paddle or get 15 stickers and get 2 free spanking paddles. So we also wanted too add to card as you get 2 stickers every time you buy from the Bondage Boutique range.

Although it says heavy duty it's not heavy to hold and easy to, but this is defiantly a beginners paddle as it has a lovely crack to it when it is spanked crossed your ass.

The paddle is 18.5 inches long spanker splits into 2 leather strips to deliver a thwack. OMG it does indeed but it's an amazing sensation, gives a nice sting on the ass it becomes very red and rosey, just what my boyfriend likes. Beautiful made leather glued together and stitched with a leather cord at the end to hang it up when not in use.

Overall a fab paddle but not for beginners - your ass needs warming up before getting on to this bad boy.

This little beauty of a paddle was the 6th to grace the back of the bedroom door and is a welcome addition to my repertoire to dish out some 'correction'.

It is essentially just two bits of leather glued and stitched together with some sort of padding running through the middle. It has a eye hole at the far end for hanging purposes and the hitty end is left unstitched to add some extra noise to each impact.

This is a bit thinner and longer that the rest of my paddles so found it did have a bit more impact than we were used to (due to less surface area so spread the force out over) but for us this was a good thing as the OH often deserves some pain and punishment!

In terms of pain it is still fairly mild although beginners may want to take it easy to begin with until they get used to it. As with any paddle there is always the third way to use it which is hitting with the edge of the paddle. Be warned though if you are not careful this may hurt more than intended as using it this way removes some of the flexible 'give' that the natural material has when used as intended.

Personally I tend to use the edges of paddles for a swift hit if I need to bring the OH gets too carried away and needs to be brought back in line!

My only concern with this item would be how long the stitching/glue will last. It has held up for a month of use so far with no signs of wear, however the edges just look like they could go.

For something marked as heavy duty I wouldn't want to really put this through its paces as I don't think it would last, however for the price I paid for this I still think it is good value for money and an excellent device to add in my rotation.

In the price range of this there is not really anything I have seen that would be better than this so definitely worth a go if you have been debating it, not to mention getting the 2 BB stickers to add to your cards for more spankys. :)

I love the Bondage Boutique range and this paddle is no different. This heavy duty paddle is perfect for the experienced kinkster. I think nebiews to paddles/spanking may be slightly intimidated by it as it really does look rather severe. Just what I like!

I have the black leather paddle. It is made with 2 pieces of leather. Looks like it is glued as well as stitched. Being heavy duty it would need to be! Although made of leather there isn't too heavy a leather smell from it. Measuring 18.5in there is plenty of paddle to use. The end that is not stitched together is 4.5in long. This gives the paddle a lovely 'crack' when it hits the skin. The paddle is very comfortable to hold. It has some weight but not too heavy. A nice balance. The handle end of the paddle has a hole with a cord so that you can hang the paddle up when not in use.

I start off gently with some softer spanks to warm up the skin then build up to harder spanks depending on how much I want to deliver. The paddle leaves the bottom lovely and rosy or some marks if you should choose to.

Being on the receiving end (the joys of being a switch), I experienced some nice thwacks and a few stingy ones!

If using this as a beginner I would be very careful.

The paddle feels like it is well made and looks like it will last. It will get plenty of use, that is for sure!

The Bondage Boutique range doesn't come overly packaged, just plain plastic packaging. Also you get a BB card stamped with 2 stamps and 2 stickers, collect 10 for 1 free spanker or 15 for 2 free!

A lovely toy for my collection!
