Overview of flail types
| Image | Item | Blunt | Edge | Point | Attack Bonus | Defense Bonus | One-handed penalty | Weight | Value | Val/lbs. | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Grainflail | 6 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 2 | 30 | 2 lbs. | 16 | 8 | Two-handed, can be crafted. An agricultural tool for threshing and improvised weapon. |
 |
Small Flail | 2 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 1 lbs. | 8 | 8 | One-handed, useful as a small weapon in particular. |
The most common flail is the Grainflail. It can be crafted with the "shift+M" key command and then selecting the "Utility articles" submenu from the crafting menu.
The Small Flail is a smaller, lighter version, also usable as a close combat weapon.
The rarer Ball & Chain and Warflail are specialiased as proper, purpose-built weapons, rather than tools also usable as weapons.
URW Game Encyclopedia description
The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes flails (in general) thusly:
Flails are threshing tools for separating the usable parts from the rest of the harvested plant, but flails can be also used as a weapon. Threshing itself is one of the actions covered by agriculture skill.
