I received the Fetish Fantasy Series Japanese silk rope (pink) as a gift from a wish list on a different site. The rope arrived in a rectangular box and included a free mask. Because my husband braids and hangs our ropes, we will not be using the original packaging for storage, however it could certainly be used as a storage container if needed.

The Fetish Fantasy Series Japanese silk rope is 35 feet in length and approximately 1/4 inch thick. While it has a soft and flexible feel, it is NOT made from silk and appears to be multi-filament Polypropylene upon handling. The ends come tied with a piece of metal tape. While this keeps the rope from fraying, more advanced rope-bondage users would most likely want to cut the rope and make their own ends.

My husband used the rope in its full length to practice a dragonfly harness on me. He described it as flexible and easy to work with; however, we were both disappointed when we noticed that the rope arrived frayed in several places.

Because the rope material is soft, it was easy to knot and adjust when needed. I found it to be very comfortable even when I was completely bound.

The Fetish Fantasy Series Japanese silk rope is a great purchase for beginners or those wanting to spice things up in the bedroom; however, I wouldn't recommend it for suspension bondage play or advanced bondage due to the seemingly low quality of the rope. I also had some concerns regarding the rope ends coming pre-taped. While we did not have a problem with the metal tape, the edges felt sharp enough to cut or scrape skin during unintended content.

My main complaint was that the rope arrived already frayed in several places; aside from that we really enjoyed using it and felt it was a good value.
