Split leather is leather created from the fibrous part of the hide left once the top-grain of the rawhide has been separated from the hide. During the splitting operation, the top-grain and drop split are separated. The drop split can be further split (thickness allowing) into a middle split and a flesh split.
Excruciating pain. It all depends where the bullet enters. A person shot in the brain will likely perceive no pain as the trauma usually renders them immediately unconscious. A bullet entering a limb such as a leg is initially perceived as a hot sting. Within 20 minutes a throbbing, pulsating pain is experienced.
The appearance and nature of the wound varies with the type of weapon used and the location of the injury, and may present as a laceration, abrasion, contusion or bone fracture. Where a victim has time to raise hands or arms before being shot by an assailant, the injury may also present as a gunshot wound.
