I have never used bondage rope|Japanese bondage rope before. This is the first one I've ever tried. I've been curious for a long time and I really like the way it looks when it's done well. As a sub, I was not sure if learning rope tying is a wasted skill, but my curiosity got the best of me so I requested it.

I was expecting it to be rough and sratchy. When you think rope, you think "burn". At least I do. The first thing I noticed when I took it out of the packaging was how soft it is. You don't expect rope to be this soft but this made me feel like it wasn't going to leave any burns or chafing. I asked my husband if he would be interested in letting me tie him up. After some coercing, he let me practice a few ties on him. Later, he practiced the same ties on me.

The insert inside the packaging gave directions for ties, not for tying up the body. It's not easy to practice tying square knots with 32 foot rope!! I think for practicing simple ties, it would be more beneficial to have maybe two feet of rope, not THIRTY TWO feet. With some videos I found on YouTube, I was able to fashion a few fancy ties. It was a little long for simple ties like a chest harness, but it was perfect for the body harness. I sometimes felt like I was drowning in rope when I was trying to pull it through while making the ties, but it didn't tangle up much and when it did, it was very easy to undo. It's a really good price and is available in three colors. I'm not sure how often I will be able to use my new rope tying skills, but if needed, I'm ready!!
