Fall Knot
Half-Hitch Spiral (HHS)
HHSThe Half-Hitch Spiral creates a dense, tightly wound texture running the length of a flogger fall — a distinctive, sculpted finish for builds that lean toward the dramatic.
By Lazarus
This technique creates an aggressive spiral for the end of the falls.
A flogger made with these will not be for just anyone. When I say “aggressive”, I mean it. If you hit with something like this too hard on bare flesh, you can draw blood. But some people like the multi-layered sensation it can give. Test it gently first, over clothes, with very open communication and only with enthusiastic consent. Build from there if your partner likes what they feel.
Rope Consumption: With ¼” (~6mm) rope, each 1” (2.5 cm) of linear distance will require 4 half-hitches, and will consume ~7.5” (19 cm) of rope
