A Flogger and a Bar

Just as I said—a flogger and a bar. These are pictures of the Sparticus Loves Theo flogger, made by Ruff Doggie Styles, and the Spreader Bar with Triangle Rings, made by Spartacus. They're both lovely additions to my ever growing collection, and they're both excellent pieces. I put them together in one post because I was honestly too lazy to make another post (I know, I deserve a spanking). HA! But regardless, here they are for you to feast your little eyes upon.

My flogger and my bar, together in harmony.

First, I'll show pictures of the bar, since I did not take many. It's an excellent bar with a plastic piece between the leather, making it stiff as anything and great for use for even the most squirmy of submissives. It doesn't bend or break, which is very much needed for a multitude of reasons. It also has seven triangle rings, meaning that you can use it in many ways and also spread your partner at different widths. The bar is about $75, which I am surprised to say is a good price. It's most definitely worth it.

Now, here are images of the Sparticus Loves Theo flogger. What that means in particular, I honestly have no idea. But it's a great flogger, extremely heavy and giving a nice, hard thud when used. The tails...boy, the tails are so thick, I was astonished. I've never owned a flogger with such thick tails, and now that I do, I'm amazed at their strength and am very pleased to own it. Another pretty thing about the tails are the rounded edges. But that's all in my review here. Let's just get to the good part, shall we?

So there you have it. A flogger and a bar, a bar and a flogger. Two great BDSM products that I'm extraordinarily happy to own. You can purchase your own here at Edenfantasys. They're not currently carrying the flogger (such a shame), but hopefully they will soon, and when they do, I will most definitely update you all on the details, pricing, and all of that.

Gated Barbed Wire Flogger by Ruff Doggie Styles

Suede and leather falls extend from the Gated Barbed Wire Flogger's leather-wrapped handle. Its mere sight is enough to instill fear in those who know what its strike will feel like. In the short time that I've owned this beauty, I have become completely enamored with it. It's not the sort of thing that I would use constantly, I will admit that. But it's so beautiful that it is worthy of being put on a pedestal like my other favorites. It's actually made me even a bit more into using floggers than I had previously been.

So here it is, Ruff Doggy Styles' beautiful, barbed wire flogger!

Isn't it just beautiful?

Let's go with the basics first, and then I'll tell you just how good this thing is. The flogger has a gorgeous, leather-wrapped handle that bears a checkerboard design. The interior of the handle is wood, I believe, which  will give you a strong grip on it, as the flogger is so-so in the weight department (not too heavy, but certainly not as light as other floggers that I own). On each end of the handle is a little piece of braided leather-enclosed wood, which is there both for style and aesthetic appeal. The handle also has a lovely, two-toned braided wrist strap that can also be used to hang it up, either on a hook, behind a door, or inside of a closet.

So now it's time for the measurements and all of that boring stuff. The holdable length of the handle is 1" wide and 5½" long, and each of those little pieces on its end are 1½" long, and 1½" wide. The loop comes off of the handle with about 4", so it's not the largest loop and it may not fit all wrists. For those that it doesn't, it is better used as just a hanger. The tails are all cut very evenly, and they reach a length of about 30", give or take an inch. That's a substantial length for any flogger, and though some might call it 'long,' do not be intimidated by its length. It's not the shortest flogger, I will agree, but it's also not too long that it becomes unwieldy.

There are two types of tails on this flogger: the suede and the "barbed wire." The barbed wire is actually thin leather strings that are braided together after being conditioned to become very firm. Every so often, there is a little wrap-around of leather and a few little pieces coming off of the braided tail. These are what give the "barbed wire" effect, and the pain and agony. The suede, on the other hand, is just regular suede; if you were to remove the barbed wire tails, the suede would be completely harmless and would make this a softer flogger. The barbed wire tails are black, whereas the suede are a pinkish red color (they are not a vibrant, deep red, but they are not completely "pink" either).

The flogger has a total of forty-eight tails—twelve barbed wire tails, and thirty six regular suede tails. That's a pretty damn good amount that is bound to pack a whole lot of punch. All of the suede tails are cut straight across, not on a bias or to a point, making them relatively soft and smooth. They are each about 3/8" in diameter, which makes them fairly thin and good for use. The suede is so high quality and so smooth and soft that I highly recommend, before using this beauty, rubbing it against your cheek or against your partner's bottom. It just feels so luxurious. The barbed wire tails are extremely beautiful, and hard as rocks. Each of the ends are covered by one of the wrapped-around pieces of leather to make them extra firm and to make sure to "cap" them so that they do not fall apart or unravel.

On the left is a picture of the barbed wire tail, and on the right, I showed the interior of the handle. It is finished with leather so that you do not feel any of the wood pieces at all, just the high-quality leather.

Alright, so after all is said and done, let's discuss how it works and who should use it. This is not a flogger that is meant for playing around, first-timers, or people who are not extreme masochists/sadists—it's meant for people who have quite a lot of experience under their belt and/or enjoy giving/receiving a lot of pain. And I do not just mean "a lot." I mean a LOT. This thing is so hardcore that when used anything other than lightly scratches the skin. No, it doesn't just bruise—it scratches, meaning that it can leave cuts and scrapes, depending on how it's thrown (i.e., swung). So if your partner doesn't like pain, and you don't like pain, and your thing is more rope-tying and bondage, then definitely do not get this flogger.

Personally, if you're not familiar with my style, I am an extreme sadist. Extreme sadist. So this sort of flogger is right up my alley, and is really pleasing to own. It's like the epitome of the best sadist's flogger, it really is. I mean, it is a bit lighter in the pain area than a paddle or riding crop might be, but comparatively to other floggers...it doesn't get much better than this, it really doesn't. It will bruise if you give very light, repeated strokes, and may leave little stippling marks on the area that's hit. But aside from that, if you take this thing and give a lot of strength between your swing...your victim is certainly in for a surprise. It will scratch, hurt, make them scream in agony. And the best part? This flogger leaves marks for days. Not just for an hour, and not just bruises that will fade. The scrapes and scratches will need to heal, which is a very good part of owning it. Sort of reminds the receiver of all that happened, no?

To wrap this thing up, I'll part with my picture of me holding it and a few nice words. Ruff Doggie Styles' Gated Barbed Wire Flogger is absolutely gorgeous, well-made, and great for extreme sadists and masochists. It's not made for people who are new to flogging or pain, and it's not for people who do not enjoy pain. If you really know what you like, and know that extreme pain is your thing, or you're even trying to push your limits a bit, this flogger's a great one to pursue and test out. I'm very glad that I own it, and I don't doubt that a person who buys it, knowingly understanding its capabilities, will be pleased, too. It's simply that good.  So have I enjoyed it, and will I be using it as much as possible? Yes, and yes. Like I said, it's not the sort of thing that I'd reach for often, and it's not an everyday flogger, but it is one that will last forever and will get a hell of a lot of use.

I received this flogger, free of charge, from Edenfantasys. I highly recommend looking there for other floggers or impact play implements if this one is not to your taste.

Twenty-five

“Listen to me. You will do as I say, am I understood?”

“Yes, Sir.”

“You won’t ever disobey me again. Am I understood?”

“Yes, Sir…”

“Good girl. I’m glad.”

Do not move unless I tell you to, do not speak unless you are spoken to, I will tell you when I want to hear you. You are miles away from me, but you will obey me, you will submit to me and give me whatever I tell you to give me. My beauty, my little girl, my slut—you are mine.

“Stand up. Pick up your feet.” I slip the panties over her smooth legs, adjust them at her hips and pluck the side-string just once to make her jump. “Did I tell you to move?”

“No, Sir…”

“Then why did you,” I whisper into her ear, groping and massaging a breast until it perks up.

She doesn’t answer me, but instead makes a light sigh and I can feel her nipple becoming harder between my fingers. I lightly brush my fingers over her, her breast bouncing back every time I do. Her nipples call to me, and I take one into my mouth, running my fingertips down her spine, hearing her gasp, feeling her body get warmer.

Abruptly, I jerk back, letting go of her after becoming fully erect. I click my tongue at her a few times and stroke the underside of her chin. “You tease me, baby girl.” I can see her immediately become defensive as her eyebrows clench together and her lips form into a scowl.

“No I don’t,” she instinctively yells, and I spank her ass in response, correcting her. She cries out a bit and stumbles forward into me. “Yes, Sir. I’m sorry, Sir.”

“You’re such a good girl…” I say to her, my voice evidently dropping a few pitches in my need. My gloved hand strokes one of her ass cheeks, soothing the mark that I just made. I lower myself to my knees, now stroking both of her ass cheeks, and kissing her thighs. She gasps at me, and I move my kisses further into her crease, my fingers slipping under her thong, stroking her shaved lips. I kiss her there, and tell her that I’m pleased with what a good girl she’s being for me. She nods and bites her lower lip.

I stop and tell her to get on her elbows and knees, and she complies, saying, “Yes, Sir.” I walk over to her, adjust my leather gloves, and lightly kick her knees to spread her legs further apart. After choosing a flogger and hitting my hand with it a few times, I trace her back with its tails. “How many do you think you deserve, slut?”

“Fifteen, Sir…”

“No. Twenty-five.” After rolling my shoulders back, I tighten my grip on the handle, smirk a bit, and send one stroke right into her cute ass.

“One, Master,” she manages out after squealing and jerking around. I correct her, and she obeys, staying still. Each lash of the flogger I make more intense than the last, her tush becoming more red, her fluids dripping down her thighs. She continues to count, each time more pained, more exasperated. Finally, we’re at twenty five.

I kneel down behind her and brush her rouged bum with the tails, laughing lowly. She sighs at me, not moving. “Please, Sir…,” she begs, keeping her head down, her position unfaltering. I put the flogger down and give her ass a light tap and rub, then bend down to kiss her. She gasps at me, and I get up again, ready to give her the final blow.

“You’ve been a very good girl. I’m pleased with you.” Then the flogger makes a hissing noise as I bring it down against her, and she counts one last time, crying out and thanking me. Again, I lightly stroke her back with the tails, and bend down behind her. I pluck the string of her thong and she winces, gasping a bit. I lick her there, soothing her.

“You are such a good girl…” I whisper against her ass, rubbing her with my cheek and hands. She sighs in response; I stroke her cunt. Slowly, I slide two of my fingers into her, and kiss her curved back. “Now, I’m going to make love to you.”
