BDSM Strikers

What is a BDSM striker?

A percuteur is an impact-playing accessory consisting of a long rod with a flatter end.
Combining the badine and the paddle, it allows you to give a very high intensity to the impact, using very little physical force.
Most often made of wood, it can also be made of leather or other sufficiently rigid materials.

What are other names for the BDSM striker?

The BDSM striker is also known as the “ferule”, an instrument used for corporal punishment in schools.

What is the origin of the ferule?

Originally, the word ferule was used to describe a plant whose dried stems could be very rigid, and used for corporal punishment.
Over the centuries, it was mainly used on children, most often on the hands.

What’s the role of the striker in BDSM?

The striker is a rather original BDSM accessory, relatively rare to find, and often makes a strong impression.

How do I use a BDSM striker?

The BDSM striker is handled like a dagger, with only the tip touching the skin.
The relatively small area of impact allows access to many areas of the body, although you’ll need to moderate the intensity on more fragile, less fleshy areas.

With the handle firmly in hand, simply project the striker against the skin, and the impact will be made on the flat surface.
