The best use for this product is as a collar. It's great for bondage (heavy OR light) or to add some spunk to your outfit. It's great for anyone, beginning, or advanced, though it does have a lock which I tend to think of more as an advanced type of collar.

The design of this collar is great-It's designed perfectly, the o-ring is just big enough to loop two fingers through to drag your 'pet' around with. it has 9 metal spikes on it, which are sharp to the touch but aren't sharp enough to hurt you or your partner whilst you sleep. I kind of disliked the fact that the metal spikes weren't even numbers on both sides, but I understand that they couldn't fit 10 since they still needed room to fit the holes to adjust the collar. This product is VERY well made, and will last even the hardest user many many years, and, well, even if it doesn't, it's protected by Aslan's lifetime guarantee. The leather is very soft and comfortable around your neck, and can be worn for hours without discomfort. It has a very nice leather smell (as it is made of leather), though to people who dislike leather, this will be bad, since it's a pretty strong smell for a while. It fits great, my neck is about 17 inches, and it fits on the 3 to last hole, so it could fit necks up to about 19 inches and as small as 12 or so. It feels very good against your skin, almost like nothing is there, but yet heavy enough to know that it is. It is a great size for all users, though people with VERY small necks, and people with pretty large necks may want to find a different collar. It has an o-ring, and a locking mechanism, though the mechanism doesn't come with a lock.

This worked very well for me and had no trouble fitting my neck. It met my needs and expectations and went even further then I had expected. I adore this collar. This could also be used as a dog collar, if you wanted it to be.

This product is very easy to care for, if it gets dirty, just clean it with a damp cloth. If it gets really dirty, then use mild soap and a damp cloth. Remember every time you get it wet to dry it off. It should be stored flat somewhere, as to not have something heavy press against your collar while it was in a circle and bend it into a weird position.

The packaging was nonexistent, it just came in the box and had the normal Aslan tag on it telling you about care and maintenance.
