the cat o nine tails was a whip with several thongs (the whip parts) attached to one handle. Usually there were metal studs attached to the end of each.
Is that what you're after? The nine tails has been around for centuries - long long before the days of colonial North America.

i'm not in England, yet i might want to attempt a quite some frame of mind. i might want to apply a rubber strap, about 10 cm huge and perhaps 60 cm lengthy. Hurts like a Singapore caning, yet would not do any everlasting harm (as long as you save the lashes in accordance to consultation sensible). i might want to also make it optionally available. you're taking such quite some lashes, you get a lot day without work your sentence. you may take a dose of lashes whenever you want and a penal complicated physician says you're healthful adequate to. How a lot day without work? adequate that some human beings bypass with the lash, yet not a lot that everybody does. meaning it really is a truthful commerce, the right volume of discomfort for the right era of time. No disfigurement, no claims that this is inhumane...after all, everybody who receives beaten volunteers for it. It develop right into a really useful punishment in US prisons in bygone years. even as a prisoner develop into ordered to artwork and refused, he were given the strap (it develop into leather-depending then). Then next day, he develop into ordered to artwork again, and if he refused he were given the strap again. there's no account of a prisoner refusing after the 4th each day dose...that develop into adequate for even the toughest, maximum obdurate criminals. i'm hostile to something that completely disfigures. Singapore canings are set up to deliberately leave scars, and a mild substitute in technique might want to get rid of that without eliminating any of the discomfort.
