Our Genuine Teak spanking paddle is a handcrafted beauty in this warm and highly desirable exotic wood. This is a medium weight wood in a classic bath brush shape that can be used for light or heavy play between consenting adults. At .70 inches thick, this paddle will sting with light strokes and provide a deep thud with firmer smacks on a well-warmed bottom. This thickness also allows us to use as much of the natural teak board as possible.Designed for elegance, sensuality, and in-hand comfort. Teak is a naturally water-resistant wood and is finished with a water-resistant finish, but this paddle is not waterproof. If it becomes wet, dry immediately after use. To ensure continued durability and shine, you may re-apply a natural wood finish like Walrus Cutting Board Oil or Howard Feed-n-Wax. International customers can purchase this item on our Etsy shop here.
