Knout
From wipipedia.org
A knout (rhymes with "boot") is a heavy scourge-like whip, usually made of a bunch of rawhide thongs attached to a long handle, sometimes with metal wire or hooks incorporated.
The English word stems from the French transliteration of the Russian word knut, which in turn comes from Old Norse knūtr, a knot.
