i am very much into the mental aspects of BDSM maybe even more than the physical. A knife can kill me, hurt me, and to allow myself to trust SO much to feel the fear mixed with trust... it's kind of like why people want to ride bigger and faster roller-coasters.

Knives - I've always been fascinated with them. Sharp, deadly, dangerous, important and necessary to certain functions of day to day life. Dull blades are more dangerous than sharp. A delicious pain, a searing cut, a visible mark afterwards. The damage by a knife is a function of control...lightly dragged there is nothing, but with more pressure there is a scratch, then a cut, then an incision. When a partner uses a knife on me, I am trusting them to know my limits, to know how to control a knife, to use their power over me in exchange for my trust without breaking my trust.
When I am bound and cannot stop him, a man with a paddle isn't going to kill me. Nor a flogger. A man with a knife, now that is danger! It makes me feel less in control, it makes the emotional response stronger, and the sensations are delicious mixed with the edge of true danger instead of just the fear of pain.

Needles:
Needles are a spiritual experience for me. In addition to a quick endorphin rush, allowing someone to penetrate not my mouth, vagina, or ass, but get inside my skin, puncture my tangible bodily covering with freedom is amazingly connecting. It is as though that first puncture lets my spirit free to roam, and I am letting the person with the needles be the protector of my skin while my consciousness floats free. Suddenly I am flying not just from endorphins, but letting go of my body and experiencing something far deeper, while my body is being watched over for me. In addition, they do create beautiful images and designs if you are into that kind of thing.

Two words: "Oooo, shiny!"

Seriously, I like the fear involved, the penetration of needles, the pain, the threat of pain, the feeling of helplessness...

ORIGINAL: Archer

Needles penetrate, they enter the body, draw blood many times. Blood is life force, I draw a small measure of life force from your body is that not power?
Knives have the fear factor, fear is an aphrodisiac for many people. Fear is power, if I control something you fear I can control you.
If I take you into that which you fear and bring you safely out the other side trust is built.

Reading through this post I would say that this is probably the most relavent answer. In the act of blood letting you are truely taking their essence (blood). For the one being cut it is more of a statment that they give their Domminant everything that they are, to take and do as they wish.

As you say that you are interested in human psychology and motivation, might I sugest that you look at different cultures in history. History thinks some Native American tribes often cut the heart from fresh kill to gain the positive essence of their kill (strength, power, ect). There are other stories simmilar from other cultures around the world although some may have been negative propaganda. From an unknowledgeable veiwpoint the entirety of the lifestyle may seem savage, but with knowledge and understanding it really does all make sense. In the end it is just as mysteroius as the human psyce its self is.

(Hi..to everyone...first time posting thoughts and so if this doesn't apprear correctly ~ chalk it up to being technologically challenged..and well, take away my birthday : )grinz )

the allure:
(receivers perspective )

...another step closer to the edge...feeling intensity on the skin..the fear which gets the adrenaline flowing high...feeling/showing such a deep trust of the other person ( they could kill me if they wanted to in that moment )gives me a very unique way to express my submission and surrender..... .piercing of the skin and flowing of the blood can feel like emotions flowing out ( for me anyway ) ... a deeper way of showing my surrender and submission to Him/Her.. knowledge that what He/She is experiencing because of my surrender to this infliction of pain, is such a rush for me....Piercing of the skin, the ultimate "entering" into me...The intensity/extreme self-control/concentration/and power i saw in His eyes, as He used my body with these instruments, was mind-blowing.
