Absolutely go get some education! There's a class of anxiety patient called cutters who are really practiced at carving themselves up- and will occasionally bleed to death by accident. You'd be amazed how a bad choice of location or a slip can open a fair sized vessel. They're there, under the skin. These people study this- it's an obsession. They also die by accident, or need some serious stitches when they screw up. Used to work in that field. Seen some bad stuff with cutters.
A good workshop will give you good information, especially about blades to use. Do NOT use exacto blades- not sharp enough, can go too deep to easily, because they aren't sharp enough and you push them, and they're covered in oil and not sterile. Trust me- I've seen exacto knife messes and nobody wants to bother with that. Not the desired effect.
You can get lancets at a drugstore. They have to be safest of the possibilities, but some people will scar from anything.

My apologies for getting grisly- but if you want to do a blood or cutting ritual it's pretty serious and that whole Risk Aware, Safe and Sane thing gets important. And if you have to call 911 it'll be hell to explain...

Yes, with scarring - Phaedre's possessed with this semi mystical ability to heal just about anything without scarring (lucky Phaedre)
I think what they're talking about in the novel is velvet gloves with blades set into them. A very genteel form of torture for the Kushiel types.
I'd love to try it sometime, though I bet it would be painful and might scar... (subspace, subspace, zen-trance :)
