A whip and sometimes a "cat of nine tails." This is a whip with 9 lines tied at the ends with knots or pieces of iron.

Slaves were often whipped with a leather whip or a whip made of braided leather cords, sometimes with a piece of metal at the end to cause more harm. The severity of the whipping and the type of whip used varied from one slave owner to another.
