PSA:KNIVES

Please PLEASE PLEASE

Don’t use kitchen knives.

It’s unsanitary. Unless they’re fresh out the box and unsharpened (and you’ve cleaned them off). Don’t go around using tainted blades.

As a rule of thumb:

Whenever I use a knife for bloody slices and scratches, those knives are cleansed in the fire and disinfected to hell and (if I’m legitimately breaking skin and shedding blood) that knife is then designated to that person.

Don’t do knife play if you aren’t fully aware of the sharpness of the knife and the amount of pressure you’re applying.

DON’T play with serrated blade knives. They tear at the flesh and more likely than not leave scars. They’re great for sensation knife play but otherwise apply little to no pressure when applying to skin.

Be aware of thin vs thick skinned areas of the body ( outer thigh-thick vs inner thigh- thin + black of neck-thick vs front of neck-thin)

I could go on and on about this but be safe.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me, or someone you know who is well versed in knife/sharps play.
