a method of chaining a line of slaves together for trekking; common methods are to link the slaves by the left ankle, left wrist, or throat; also, the line of slaves itselfcollar :
any of several iron or steel devices that fit around the neck of a slave; in Torvaldsland, they are of iron, hinged, and fastened with a rivetcollar, dance :
a collar to which light-weight chain has been attached in order to set off the dancer; a common type consists of a large oval of chain roughly 3 yd. in circumference, to which wrist cuffs and ankle cuffs are attached; once the two sides of the oval have been attached to a ring on the collar, the chain gives about 36" of play for each hand, and 18" play for each foot; much used in the Taharicollar, lock :
a hinged collar easily removed by the use of a key; usually of flat stock, c. 1-1/2" to 2" high; usually worn by trained slaves; the lock has one pin for each of the letters in the word 'kajira'collar, plate :

chain; pl. fori - chains"They will teach her that she is a slave and owned. How could it be made more clear to her, that she is his to do with as He pleases, than when she actually wears His chain? It is difficult to describe the subtle and exquisite emotions, so profound, and helpless and feminine, which may be felt by the chained woman. `You are chained, and a slave,' the chains say to her. `He has chained you, and He is your Master. He may now do with you as he pleases. You are now in your place. Choice is gone. Now you can be only, and wholly, a woman. Prepare now to serve your Master, beautiful chained slave.'"
~Guardsman of Gor, pages 242-243~girl-yoke :
a narrow piece of wood c. 5' long with holes drilled in the middle and at each end; to secure a girl in this yoke, a thong is tied around one wrist, the end of the thong then being passed through the hole in one end of the yoke; the thong is then passed through the middle hole of the yoke, wrapped around the girl's neck 5 times, then passed back out through the same hole, after which it is passed through the hole at the other end of the yoke, so that her other wrist may be tied to the yoke; shorter (2 1/2' long) versions are sometimes used while the girl is serving her master's pleasure; used mostly among the Red Savages of the BarrensIron Belt:
Similiar to the "Chastity Belt" of earth."We were all naked. It was easier to tell, however, which of us were virgins, for the virgins, like myself, wore the 'iron belt.' Its horizontal position, like an iron oval, would close about my waist, and the vertical position, like a 'U', hinged in front to the horizontal position, flattened, shaped and slotted at its center, would swing up between my legs and there its flattened, laterally slotted end, like a hasp, would be placed over the staple on the left side of the oval ring, the right side, already over this staple, secured there, behind my back, with a heavy, dangling padlock. There was little danger I would be penetrated while wearing this device."
Book 22, Dancer of Gor, pages 64 - 65Harl ring :
a form of slave chain which consists of an ankle ring with a welded ring in back and a yard of in front; the chains termi- nates in a locking device which can be attached to another Harl ring, around a post, or to itself in order the secure the slave who wears it; named for its inventoriron pens :

slave collarkurt :
the five-bladed slave whipEta lifted a stout whip, with long handle, which might be wielded with two hands, and five dangling, soft, wide lashing surfaces, each about a yard long. "Kurt," she said. I shrank back. "Kurt," I repeated.
From Kajira of Gor. P 83Leash:
He then went to a chest and from it fetched forth a high, thick, plain, black leather collar with a lock closure. There was a sturdy ring attached to this collar, and attached to the ring, there was a long slave leash of black leather, it was some fifteen feet in length. In most leadings, of course, this amount of length would not be used, but would be coiled in the grasp of the master. The length is useful if the slave is expected to perform leash dances, is to be bound with the leash, or if, it doubled at the master’s end, it is to be used to train or discipline her.
From Kajira of Gor. p336leg-spreader :
devices of various complexity designed to keep a slavegirl's legs spread while being used sexually by her master(s); sometimes used on male captives as an indication of humiliation; used mostly among the Red Savages of the Barrensplank collar :
a two-piece board hinged at one end and capable of being locked at the other, it has two or more semi-circular holes cut in each side so that it may fit around the necks of more than one slavegirl or slaveboypleasure rack:
a device, ranging in complexity from a grid of ropes in a wooden frame to a moveable, adjustable frame with chains, for the display and sexual use of slavesPost Strap/Harness:
I was pulled to the post, close to it and facing it. The heavy belt, with the ring on it, through which the loose post strap passed, that strap looping the post and threaded through the belt ring, was put about my belly, and buckled shut, tightly, behind the small of my back. I could now move easily about the post but, given the post strap, and the belt ring, I could not be further than six inches from it.
"When you are more experienced, you will not need the harness," said the whip master. "Too, we will let you try it sometimes with your hands tied behind you."
"Yes, Master," I said.
"Address yourself now to the post, Tiffany," he said. "Make it sweat. Make it cry out with pleasure."
"Yes, Master," I said.
From Kajira of Gor. P 290shipping collar :
a loose, generic collar worn by slaves when being shipped as cargosirik :
a arrangement of chains used to display a slavegirl rather than confine her; it consists of a collar, to which about five feet of chain is attached; part-way down the chain is a pair of manacles, and the chain terminates in a set of shacklesslave bells :
tiny bells which give off a sensual shimmer of sound; threaded by the dozen on thongs or chains, they may be tied or locked around a girl's ankles or wrists, or attached to her collar; are worn or removed only at the whim of a ownerslave box :
1) small, square iron box, with a door; a punishment device for slaves;
2) a small ventilated box, barely large enough to contain a slave"I will be good! I will be good!" I heard a girl cry, from within a low, steel, rectangular box, shoved against the side of the passage, presumably that it would not be in the way. I stopped, startled. It had not occurred to me that a girl could be held within those small confines. Indeed, in the half-darkness of the lamp-lit passage I had hardly noticed the box. It was about four feet long and three feet wide, with a depth of perhaps eighteen inches. It was of steel and opened from the top. In the lid, at each each, there was a circle, about five inches in diameter, of penny-sized holes. It was locked shut, secured by two flat, steel bars, perpendicular to its long axis, padlocked, in front, in place. "I will be good!" wept the girl, from within.
"It is a slave box," said Hermidorous.
"I beg to be pleasing, Masters!" cried the girl from within.
"Surely, she must be a very tiny woman," I said, horrified to Drusus Rencius.
"She is the former Lady Tais of Farnacium," said Hermidorus. "Her house name is Didi. She is, as I recall, a normal-sized slave."
"The box is so small," I said.
"It is supposed to be small," said Drusus Rencius. "But consider the cramping, the tightness, the girl's helplessness," I said.
"Those are among its purposes," he said.
"But it is so small!' I protested.
"It is not really so small," he said.
I looked at him.
"It would be, for example," he said, "more that large enough for you"
From Kajira of Gor. p 148slave cage :
a small cage, just big enough for a slavegirl to sit or curl upslave goad :
an electrical device, much like a cattle prod, used for controlling and disciplining slavesslave hobble :
a chain consisting of a wrist-ring and an ankle-ring; the chain it is fastened on one ankle and the opposite wristslave hood :

a method of chain a slavegirl consisting of a hinged iron loop which locks around their waist, with two sliding wrist- rings and a welded ring in the middle of the backslave pole :

a heavy iron ring, c. 1' in diameter, to which a slave may be secured for security, discipline, or any other reason; often found in floors, attached to the foot of a master's sleeping couch, etc.slave sack:
I saw him shaking out the slave sack in the utility room. This was not the first time I had been unchained from the loom and hurried to the utility room. "Get in," he said. I crawled into the sack, and it was pulled up, over my head, and laced shut, I then felt it dragged across the floor. He then lifted it up, partly, I now sitting in it, and left it against a wall. He then left. The confinement was not intended to be one of full security, of course. If it had been, then I would have been bound and gagged within it, that I might not be able, by fingernail or teeth, to attack seams or cut through the leather. Indeed, if I caused the least bit of damage to the slave sack, I had little doubt but what I would be well punished. Confinement in the slave sack is, incidentally, a familiar form of light punishment for a girl.

ankle irons with about a horts length of chain between eachMy ankles were chained; some ten inches of chain separated them; the chain was fastened on them by means of two padlocks. I was the only girl in camp, as far as I knew, who was shackled
From Kajira of Gor. P 244Switch:
The switch is often used on a girl when she is guilty of minor indiscretions or tiny misdemeanors. It is thought a fitting instrument for encouraging a beauty to be more careful or zealous in her service.
From Kajira of Gor. P 85Whip:
I gasped.
"Mistress?" she asked.
"What is that?" I said.
"A whip," she said, puzzled. Seeing my interest she brought it towards me. I stepped back. She held it across her body. Its handle was about eighteen inches long. It was white, and trimmed with yellow beads. Depending from this handle, at one end, were five pliant yellow straps, or lashes. Each was about two and a half feet long, and one and a half inches wide.
