Description

If metanoia is your goal, this Seven-Fall Sisal Discipline Whip might be just the helpful tool you were looking for.  A discipline whip, also known as a flagrum or scourge, is an ancient instrument of penance and spiritual discipline. Here at Cords of Penance, we make our disciplines of sisal rope, by hand and with care.  Our whips are tried and tested, and found to do the job very well without much ado.

The 19″ Standard Size Seven-Fall Discipline Whip (Standard Size = 1/4″ cordage) has an average size handle and medium length falls.  Together they add up to a total of 19″ in length which is the preferred choice of the majority of our customers.  If you are looking for a shorter version, we offer a 17″ Standard Size variant.  For taller people the 23″ Standard Size might be more satisfactory.

Our Discipline design has been extensively tested with over 10,000 strokes and holds strong.  Sisal disciplines are impact whips that do not break the skin easily, although bruising may happen, depending mostly on vigor and frequency of use.  Whips like ours are intended to add an edge to meditation and fervency to prayer, rather than draw blood.  Customers have repeatedly confirmed that our sisal disciplines lie well in the hand and are easy to use with satisfying results, making them the perfect tool for meditative penitential spiritual practices.

The sisal rope we work with is a natural, biodegradable, unoiled and untreated product.  It is exceptionally durable and retains both knots and twist very well.  New sisal is somewhat stiff but softens quickly with use.  You need neither oil, wax, nor otherwise condition your Seven-Fall Discipline Whip.

We package discreetly so you can buy with confidence!
