This thread has been one of those things that's kind of a "slow burn" interest wise for me. Had it in the back of my mind a bit. Going through a drawer today, I came across a couple of knives that might be quite appropriate for this kind of thing. Got me thinking about having a lady restrained as I performed what I would call a "gentle engraving". Got a couple questions for those in the know, forgive me if I'm retreading already covered ground:

- Is it possible to produce a good sensation without drawing blood? For example there was a pic posted earlier of some of Dawg's handiwork that doesn't look like any cuts deep enough to bleed, or at the last not much at all. I compared them to cat scratches I think. Would that be accurate? Is that "enough" of a sensation to make this enjoyable?

- Got to thinking about just how detailed one could potentially get in terms of creating patterns/designs. A fine-tipped knife, in theory, could be as good as a sketching pencil more or less. Now I'm not much of a drawer (though I suppose it's never to late to learn), but would the thought, for a sub, of having some sort of fairly intercate pattern/design put onto you with a knife, being used as a sort of "knife play canvas" I suppose, be a pleasant thought? (The artist in me coming out again...)

- Related to the above, for those that have had this done, how long would you like something like the above to last? Don't want it to get boring after all.
