Tawse: I’ve only had this once and on the hands. Pretty similar to both the cane and strap on the hands – one or two strokes feels like the strap, but I got the same type of heavy build up to agony that I got from the cane. I had to hold my hands a bit differently which might have made some difference, but it is impressive.
