First, here are a few misconceptions related to knife play that I would like dispel from the outset.

The first deals with the "depth" of the cutting. In S&M the goal of the Top in all cases, is to inflict a maximum or desired level of sensation, WITHOUT disfiguring the physique of the bottom. Knife play is therefore about 75% "touching, scraping and rubbing" and about 25% actual cutting.

The second popular misconception, is that a knife has but one use, but one sensation that it can produce, and is therefore of limited use to the SM devotee. Knives have a cutting edge of course, but also have sides, points, handles and since they are made of metal, can be refrigerated or heated as the Top may decide.

A third erroneous view involves the concept of actual blood letting. True, there may well be some, but this is absolutely unnecessary if undesired.

Finally, the fourth most popular misconception involves the idea that to play with knives means to scar by necessity, and that scars, permanent lasting scars are the name of the game. My current partner and I have played in this manner on many occasions, and she has not ONE permanent scar on her body.

Having gotten that out of the way, let's begin:

Knives are dangerous things. They have been used to kill and maim for thousands of years. Of concern to the Top, should be the fact that unless they are cared for VERY well, are sharp and are above all CLEAN, knives can well incur their traditional penalties.

Buy quality equipment. You are looking for carbon steel blades, the finest quality you can find. You want a keen, smooth UNSERRATED edge. You want to keep this edge razor sharp, or rather dull. Either or, as befits your level of experience. The most dangerous knives are those that are a "little" sharp. These are unpredictable. They cut sometimes, but not others, depending on the texture of the skin. Sharp always cuts. Dull never will. Choose either and be sure of the situation.

Keep the knives you choose WELL. That means, use them for no other purpose. Keep them in a fine state of repair. A knife that is chipped or knicked or has a loose handle, is absolutely ready for the garbage can., or non-S&M related uses.

The purchase of a blade, to be used in S&M play bears a deal of consideration. Visit a knife shop, and have a look at what they have on display. For your first blade, I would strongly suggest that you stay well away from all the fancy "fantasy" blades that they have on sale. They look pretty, but tend to be very cumbersome for the first time "player". Choose instead a basic knife, of medium size. A bowie with a six inch blade is a good choice. Remember, we are going for QUALITY here, so expect to spend from 100 to 150 dollars US.

Knives to stay clear of are chrome plated ones, serrated ones, those made for food preparation, double edged knives (unless you are an expert) "fruit knives", which tend to be chrome plated stainless steel, and are unsharpenable, hobby knives, widget blades, disposable razor blades, box knives, carpet knives, switch blades, folding knives unless they have a positive lock and of course, cheap knives.

99.9 % of the time when Dave and I uses knives there is NO cutting...its a sensatory thing ONLY. We have a collection of daggers and knives that we use for this purpose only. The one that is being used on knows that no sudden moves need to be made by them (normally we are using restraints so that isnt possible) and that even if the person has to sneeze or cough the person with the knife is warned.

Dave is the only person I have ever trusted to get anywhere near me with a sharp object...100% trust is essential in knife play....you will not get the enjoyment that can be had if you have ANY doubts about the person in charge.

Cutting is saved for "special" occasions and is not done unless we are both stone cold sober.

now...the "mommy" speech is over I will just say that knife play done properly can be an awesome erotic experience....one of the best orgasms I've ever had came while being blindfolded and having a dagger against my neck, it seemed like it was never ever going to stop.

If you're interested in that kind of thing spend some time experimenting alone...run the knife over yourself in various places in different ways, using different degrees of pressure....you'll be amazed at how your body and mind react to it.
