About this workshop:
Feel the thrill of cold steel and hot skin in this hands-on introduction to knife play. We’ll explore the art of building tension with the glint of a blade, from light, sensual teasing to more intense sensations, all while prioritizing safety, negotiation, and aftercare. Whether you crave the slow, shiver-inducing drag of metal or the rush of fear and control, you’ll learn how to turn sharp edges into sharp pleasure.
In this class we’ll cover:
Knife types, selection, and care
Basic supplies and techniques
How to incorporate ideas (including fear play) and still make it fun and sexy
