You have already gotten some good advice, but here's 3 more cents.. inflation and all that jazz.
I've been passionately involved in the practice of needle and knife play for several years and don't carry a single scar from those experiences.
Generally, when I'm being cut, the depth is about 1 to 1 1/2 mm and it's very intense. Unless you're a hard core edge player/risk taker and extreme masochist, you'll probably get what you're looking for it you keep it that depth. You might want to consider getting those endorphins flowing prior to the cutting if you want to go deeper but let your tolerance be your guide on how edgy you want to get. I've never gone past a quarter inch and I think I'm fairly edgy and that depth was only, ever, to my ass which I believe has a kevler lining just under the surface. lol
Meatier areas, such as the ass, can be carved deeper than other areas, like the back, with less pain because of the stored fat. Now, that may not be what you're looking for, but it's a good place to start for a beginner. The inside of the thighs, surprisingly, are also very sensitive to knife play and gives the added benefit of accessibility to other, more interesting body parts. :) Alternatively, you can always turn the knife blade around, so the cutting edge is face up, and run the tip over, almost, any body part for that sharpie feeling without actually puncturing skin. Makes for a nice little mixture with actual blood letting and can help prolong scenes which, for me at least, never seem to last long enough! I'd only do this with a knife though, not a scalpel unless you want to risk cutting off a nipple or something although scalpels would absolutely be my preference for the actual cutting if I am the recipient. Go figure, when I'm the one doing the cutting, I prefer a knife, but that's because I almost always incorporate terror play into a blood letting scene and feel that I have much better control with it. We're not talking just any old knife either. The 2 buck Walmart special just doesn't 'cut' it here. lol I, personally, have Wusthof's for any knife play I do, but everyone has their own preferences.
Some things you can try which I doubt you'll find in any books are:
Run an ice cube over the area before play. The capillaries will descend and there will be less blood.
Use a heating pad before play. ::better yet, a flogger! lol:: The capillaries will rise towards the surface seeking to cool and you will bleed more.
Something else to keep in mind. If you have a headache or other ailment and take some aspirin, save the blood letting for another day. It's an anticoagulant and can turn that nice little scene into a trip to the emergency room.
Anyway, do your research to find out the 'no' areas, things like, oh, eyeballs, the wrists, major veins and artery's ::even minor ones!::, cleaning and healing tips ... things of that nature, decide on the type of knife you want to use, what brand etc. and most of all, have a blast.
Good luck, can't wait to hear some of your stories about the experiences you'll have. :)
