This exquisite flogger is sure to give a lasting impact. The stiff, heavy, nubuck falls are flat-tipped and create an impressive thud. Nubuck is a quality top-grain leather, similar to suede. Heavy and durable, it has been gently sanded to create a soft, velvet-like surface. The handle is made of traditional leather, black to compliment the purple-dyed falls of this excellent flogger.
