This is a hand crafted English School Punishment Cane in straight length with a ball knob top which are reproductions of the traditional English school punishment canes of yesteryears when these canes were in use for administering corporal punishment to pupils in English and Welsh schools prior to the CP ban in 1986.
This particular version of the English School cane was called the \'Nursery School Cane\'.The Nursery School Cane is a light, thin and very whippy school cane and has a wooden ball top handle for balance and looks andparacord handle in choice of Black or Black Widow (Red & Black). Refer to Pics 2 & 3 for choice of handle colors. If you have a choice for a specific handle color, please send us a note with your order and we\'ll honor your request.The Nursery School cane (Straight Length - Ball Knob Top w/Paracord Handle) is approximately 28\" (70 cms) long and 6.5 mm thick.(actual measurements can vary between 27-30\" (67-75 cms) in length and 6.25 - 7 mm in thickness)
They are crafted out of 1st quality Indonesian Kooboo rattan (with skin) which was the choice material for authentic school punishment canes. Kooboo Rattan (with Skin) is a light yet strong and very flexible plant material with remarkable durability and effectiveness and it is not an inferior material like a garden center stick or even craft grade rattan reed which is a much less denser material.
The canes are carefully hand sanded at the knots to remove protrusions and yet keep the character of the original article and the business tip of the cane is sanded and rounded off. They are also stained and finished off in 2 coats of polyurethane coating for protection and ease of cleaning and sanitization. We use environmentally friendly low VOC and virtually no odor products to stain and finish these canes.
The Nursery School cane (ball knob top w/Paracord Handle) is a excellent accessory for School themerole-plays, adult school parties and adult school reenactments or just plain spicing things up between consenting adult couples and to keep that naughty boy or girl behaving and in control.
The Nursery School cane (ball knob top w/Paracord Handle) is one of our moderately priced rattan cane offerings. We hand craft them just like we make our premium grade canes except we do not soak and treat them in linseed oil. Please check out our Premium grade rattan canes which are linseed oil treated and cured for added flexibility and maintain suppleness for an extended period by clicking the \'Other Rattan Cane offerings\' link at the top of this listing.
***Please do note that the cane(s) depicted in the pictures is an example and not the exact or identical product you will receive. The pictures depict an example of a similar cane you will receive and the actual product might look different in color and shape owing to the nature of the product. Kooboo rattan is a natural plant material and no two canes are identical in physical dimensions and characteristics.***

Why buy our canes?

There are a lot of choices out there if you are shopping for a rattan cane but what distinguishes ours? We know our rattan punishment canes and we take pride in making ours for the discerning customer. We don\'t just sell you a crooked stick that resembles a rod you picked up in the garden center in a home improvement shop. Our raw material is carefully sourced keeping the quality of rattan in mind. We reject about 40-50% of the raw material in our handcrafting process to carefully pick our lengths for a good cane. And we give all our canes (including our \'seconds\') the VIP treatment and all the steps listed in our \'About Canes\' section to ensure we deliver a quality rattan cane that can last several years if used right and cared for.

Our rattan canes may not be cheap in price but neither is our quality and we don\'t sell you just a raw rattan length and call it a cane. Someone familiar with one can tell the difference in quality between our canes and a random length of unfinished rattan sold as a cane.


About our Canes
Unless otherwise specified, all our canes are hand crafted out of natural Indonesian kooboo rattan (with skin) which is golden yellow to yellowish brown in color. Our top grade canes have choice cut lengths of kooboo rattan with minimal blemishes (which is inherent to kooboo rattan as it is a natural product).
We do offer \'seconds grade\' canes from time to time with blemishes which are more pronounced and yet very functional and usable. These canes are offered at a lower price point than our top grade canes which offer a significant bargain for a customer who is willing to overlook some naturally occuring blemishes in the rattan.
All our premium grade canes are soaked and treated with raw linseed oil for weeks to saturate the rattan\'s internal capillaries to add weight and flexibiliity and lock in the absorbed linseed oil. The knots are hand sanded to remove any protruding kinks and the business end is hand sanded and rounded off. They are then varnished with two coats of wood stain to preserve the natural color of the rattan and yet offer a nice protective coat. Finally they are finished with two coats of low gloss polyurethane finish for a smooth and protective coat and still preserve the natural color of kooboo rattan.

If you have a custom/bespoke request for a cane with specific length or diameter or handle type or even extra steps in our finishing process (extracoats of varnish or poly or if you don\'t want it coated with poly), please enquire by sending us a message and we\'ll try our best toaccommodate your request if it is within our production parameters.

A message to our customers

If you have noticed, our cane prices have crept up slowly in the past few months and you might be wondering if we are getting greedy and arbitrarily raising our prices. Fair assumption but we do owe an explanation for this price increase phenomenon.

Our rattan cost, the chief raw material of our canes has gone up 30% since Mid 2013 due to price increases from our suppliers. Good quality rattan best suited to make this implement is getting harder to obtain due to export restrictions and bans from countries where rattan grows. Not all varieties of rattan is best suited for making this implement and we are very fastidious and diligent when it comes to procuring the best rattan for our canes which translates to a quality implement.

We have also been steadily improvising our canes in terms of design and materials we use. We are slowly but steadily switching all our cane handles to high grade American made whip making paracord which offers a flat profile and flush handle design. We also switched to a special premium grade low VOC polyurethane and high grade low VOC wood stain which offers high quality finish on our canes that does not affect the natural look of the rattan implement. We found a solution to finish the top of the handle with rubberised finish which secures the handle well and very durable. Our cane handle base which we still use tape to secure and fasten, we use the highest quality military grade tape which has excellent adhesion and tensile strength to hold it in place. And we continue to explore ways to make our implements better in quality and design. You will see all these changes in our new stock as we replenish them.

Finally, this is a small boutique shop catering to a very select audience and not a mass produced product and we want to keep it that way to maintain the quality and standard of our canes. All our canes are exclusively handcrafted by us in the United States and everything involving making this implement would have to be done manually except simple hand tools. We can cut corners and offer you an inferior quality cane and maintain our prices but we decided against that. We aim to bring you a high quality implement with no compromises on the quality and standards of our canes and in fact we plan on improving them as we discover ways to do so even if that means passing on the cost to the buyer and we do sincerely hope our buyers are discerning to know the difference between a quality rattan punishment cane and a cheaply made stick that passes up for a cane.

We are unable to guarantee the prices for our canes owing to the nature of the raw material which comes primarily from South Asia and the increasing stringent restrictions on export of rattan by the governments of the rattan producing countries and we do foresee rattan prices increasing. Other factors like fee increases from market fronts for our selling our wares also affect our pricing. What we can guarantee you is that we will continue to bring a quality cane for our discerning buyers and ever improve on its quality and standards even if it means passing on some of that costs to our end customers. That is our promise and goal and we will strive to provide a quality rattan punishment cane to our customers with no compromises on quality and standards.
