This is a spinning top formed in one piece of suitable material having a proper weight, such as wood or high impact plastic material. It has a bottom convex spinning surface merging into an outwardly upwardly extending cone-shaped portion. The cone-shaped portion then merges into an upwardly extending cylindrical main body portion, which, in turn, merges smoothly outwardly and upwardly into a second cylindrical portion. This second cylindrical portion is internally hollow and cylindrical and merges inwardly into a hollow area within said main body cylindrical portion, this hollow portion with said main body cylindrical portion being slightly tapered downwardly and inwardly and serves to receive a rod or the human thumb of one hand while the other hand manipulates a flexible belt or strap of suitable length about the main body cylindrical portion to impart spinning rotation to the spinning top, this flexible belt or strap having a width about equal to the external height of the main body cylindrical portion.
