Miniature Double-Ball Flail with Antique Finish
A Stylish Accessory for Weapon Enthusiasts
This miniature is not just an ordinary paperweight. Despite its small size of 13 cm (approx. 5.1 inches), it is crafted with attention to detail. The handle features a spiral relief imitating leather or rope wrapping for a better grip, just like real historical examples. The main feature is the two movable spiked balls suspended on a link chain. At the bottom of the handle, you will find a practical loop with a ring. This allows you to not only display the flail in a cabinet but also hang it as an ornament on a backpack, attach it to a costume belt, or use it as a very distinctive keychain.

Historical Window: From Threshing to Fighting
The weapon this miniature represents is known as a flail or a ball-and-chain morning star. Originally, flails were created by modifying agricultural tools used for threshing grain. The variant with a ball on a chain was more of a cavalry or knightly weapon, as the chain allowed the striker to reach over or around an opponent's shield. Although two-headed (or multi-headed) flails are popular in fantasy literature and movies, they were rare in actual history because they were difficult to control—the warrior risked injuring himself when swinging. However, you can enjoy the romance of this weapon safely with this miniature.
Care and Safety
To keep this metal beauty looking great for as long as possible, just follow a few simple principles:
- Cleaning: Remove dust with a soft brush or dry cloth. Do not use water or aggressive chemicals that could damage the patina.
- Storage: Metal can oxidize in humid environments, so keep the miniature in a dry place.
- Safety: Even though it is a miniature, the spikes on the balls can be sharp. This product must be kept out of reach of small children—there is a risk of swallowing small parts or eye injury. It is a collector's item, not a toy.
