What are some examples of flagrant fouls that you have called or seen? Or general guidance is appreciated.
Clearly when this flagrant situation comes up I would like to hit it decisively, without hesitation.

I've never called a flagrant foul. Fighting is flagrant, any excessive force in a reckless manner on a player is usually flagrant. The key word there is excessive. If it's just a little bit of force in a reckless manner while not making an attempt to play the ball, then it would be an intentional foul.
I saw your other post, are you a new referee?
