Order Form for Custom Floggers and Cats

Please fill out the following form and send it to me using the Send button at the bottom. I will get back to you with a price quote for your flogger or a request for more information. Don't feel limited by this form; if there's anything you want in your flogger that doesn't fit on the form, or if you have any questions, feel free to contact me for assistance. If you have a drawing of what you're looking for, contact me for information about how to transmit it.

Select the type of handle that you want:

Wood core wrapped in leather lacing
Exotic wood with lacquer finish
Hybrid of exotic wood and leather lacing
Laminate of several exotic woods with color swirl patterns

The first three handle types are about the same price. Laminates are particularly beautiful and quite unusual, but they require extra time to produce and are somewhat more expensive.

If you have selected a handle with leather lacing, what color or colors of lacing do you prefer?

Black
Red
Brown
Tan
Blue
Purple

If the handle has exposed wood, what kind of finish do you want on the wood?

Natural oil (dull with a natural wood grip feel)
Lacquer, flat
Lacquer, semi-gloss
Lacquer, high gloss

Select the shape of the handle. You can either choose one of the shapes below or have your flogger made with a handle that has the same shape as one in the gallery.

Handles wrapped in leather lacing are not normally made from exotic wood, since the lacing covers the wood. The other types of handles use exotic woods. Select your wood from the following list. If you are ordering a laminated handle, select each type to be used; otherwise, select just one type.

Species marked with an asterisk are more expensive than the others. I can make your flogger from almost any kind of wood if I can obtain it, but bear in mind that some types of exotic wood are quite expensive and difficult to locate. Please inquire for details.


Specify the length of the handle from the edge where the falls connect to the end of the grip where the hanger would connect (5—11 inches): inches

Specify the diameter of the handle at its widest point (1—2 inches): inches

What type of hide should be used to make the falls?

Pigskin
Deerskin
Lambskin
Cowhide
Bullhide
Elkhide
Other

What color should the falls be? One color is standard, but multiple colors are also available. Not every color is available for every type of hide.

Black
Red
Brown
Other
Other

What weight of hide do you prefer (optional)? oz.

Hides are available in various colors and weights, but availability depends on my suppliers' stock. If you're looking for a specific species or color not listed here, please email me and I'll let you know what is available and what it will cost.

How long should the falls be? inches

How wide should each of the falls be? inches

How many falls do you want altogether (optional)?

Do you want the falls to be braided (extra cost)? yes no

The number of falls is limited by the diameter of the base of the handle. More falls, wider falls, or thicker hide require a larger base to set the falls into. If the falls need a large base, the base of the handle may be wider then the top ball or flair at the hanger end, with a thinner shaft between those two points. Unless you specify otherwise, I install as many falls as will fit while still maintaining what I feel are proper aesthetics for the flogger. I can expand the base diameter as necessary if you want more falls or wider ones. If you’re not working with one of my standard handle shapes and need help in configuring the falls, email me.

What should be the shape of the tips of the falls?

Rounded
Pointed
Diagonal cut
Split tongue
Square

What type of hanger, if any, do you want?

None
Flat band
Braided

I make a number of unusual types of floggers not included in this form, such as matched (handed) pairs. Those need to be weighed and balanced to be matched correctly and come at additional cost. I'll try to make whatever you dream up if it's at all possible and estimate its cost for you. For instance, you might want your flogger to have a handle shape of your own design. For retailers, I can produce a handle with an exclusive signature profile. The possibilities are endless.
