The
Brothers
The
single thickness is considered by many to be more severe than slapper
or "doubled over" designs. Slightly more skill and attention
are called for to place the strokes accurately.
The
Big Brother is a heavy punishment strap made of premium
harness leather about 3/16" thick and is one of our best designs.
Smooth and supple from the first, it mellows and becomes even more limber
with use.
Instead
of a powerful punishment instrument, the Little Brother
(or Little Spanker) is a pleasant warm-up toy, perfect for bedroom
use and over-the-knee. Since we introduced it in our first collection,
it has been very popular.
A
new addition to the "family" is the Middle Brother, an
intermediate size between the other two and distiguished by the rounded
corners, requested first by the customer that first ordered it. Also
available with the familiar square corners like the other Brothers.
A
user told us:
"I
am having a wonderful time with the Little Bro and the Middle
Bro ... the ones I have are doing a terrific job. I have treated
each one's blade with leather conditioner until they are very supple
and whippy. Very nice. Great stingers.GS"
We've
had inquiries from customers about the size and use of the Big Brother:
"Is
the Big Brother your closest
to an old-fashioned razor strap? I had imagined them as being longer,
but perhaps the handle makes up for the difference."
A
barber's strop is usually between 20" and 24" long
including the metal hook and the handle. A household strap would
be a little shorter. The Big Brother is usually 20-22"
long ... and in my opinion it can be taken out to about 24" without
too much loss of control. We also use a leather about twice the thickness
of the barber's strop.
"Would
this instrument be adequate for self-discipline?
If not, which of your products would you recommend for this type of
sensation, self-administered?"JMP
It
depends on whether you want to hit back or butt ... and what kind of
effect you're looking for. The Big Brother does a pretty
good job with an around-the-hip shot to the butt. For use over the shoulder
to the back, it probably wants to be cut down to 18 to 20".*
