King Rings Father of Pearl Midnight Glans Ring

I mentioned in my FOP cock ring review that I stumbled across a matching cock and glans set in the King Rings secondhand products page - and wouldn’t you know it? They were just my size. Although I now own 9 King Rings cock adornments, this is my first glans ring from Scott. How does it stack up?

I shouldn’t have to say that the design and finish of ANY King Rings product is top quality as that is just what has come to be expected at the price point and from a well-established brand in the industry. The glans rings are no exception to this rule with this sample sporting a handsome piano black plating under a crystal smooth finish. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I think the finish of the glans ring may differ in some way to those of the cock rings - it just looks… different. It seems to pick up finger prints more? Or perhaps that is just a side effect of my cock rings being flat while the glans rings feature a radiused outer profile? In any event, the finish is on par with what you would expect from King Rings.

King Rings Father of Pearl Midnight Cock Ring

I’ve casually been looking at the Father of Pearl Midnight as a brother to join my original Father of Pearl in the collection. I didn’t spring on it until recently when I came across such a sample with a matching glans ring on the King Rings secondhand products page. An adornment can be washed, so how could I resist?

Just like the original, this FOP features a gorgeous jewelry quality finish and top shelf design. A smart addition since the first FOPs includes a laser engraving of the size on the inside of the adornment. For someone with a HUGE collection, I can’t express how helpful this is when I am browsing for a ring to wear! Scott’s always thinking up the smart ideas! Per usual, the manufacturing process is spot on. This ring fits well at 1.813" in diameter and the thick .795 profile helps keep the weight up. You won’t forget you’re wearing the FOP since it weighs slightly more than half a pound! As is appropriate for such a premium adornment, the .275" thickness of the ring features a comfortably radiused inner profile. The outer profile edges feature a step cut which serves to add a bit of “bling” to the visage of your manhood while wearing. The turquoise colored abalone inlay is just as striking as the original FOP and I am hard pressed to decide if the piano black finish or the smooth sliver finish is more handsome. Hell, why not both?!

Ballistic Metal HD Heavy Duty Quad Rings Cock Cage

I have had my eye on this behemoth for a long time. It’s no secret that I love multi-ring setups. Two of my favorites are triple-ring setups with a cock, shaft, and ball ring. There’s just something about having my manhood wrapped in lots of metal. It was a nobrainer that this quad cage would show up in my collection given the thick wire size and the multi-ring design.

As is usual for Ballistic Metal, this design is unique and pushes the bounds of standard designs. They started with 1/4" wire rings and asked the question, “What if we added MORE rings?” They doubled up on rings for both the cock ring and the shaft ring leaving each testicle to be ringed by a single wire. My usual size for a shaft ring is 1.35", but for dual wear, sizing up to the 1.52" diameter of this ring ensure comfort while the cock ring at 2.01" does its work. Both of those sizes alone leave me wanting when it comes to pump and engorgement, but when donned together, they provide a nice pump. This is clearly an industrial piece of metal (another Ballistic Metal signature). The stainless is not plated and features a semi-matte sheen. The wire rings themselves do not have a seam - which would be a deal breaker for a piece of kit at this price. The welds joining the rings are quality workmanship with no sharp edges to catch or pinch on, but the unfortunate side effect of the welds is the discoloration and slight rusting opportunity where the weld was done. Depending on your desired look, this may be a good thing or a bad thing. With Ballistic Metal known for being so “industrial”, this design fits right up their alley given the masculine look and greater than 11oz of heft. I personally would have appreciated a completely uniform finish (maybe dipped or plated) to even out the finish at this price range, but that’s a small niggle for a quality piece of kit.

3D Printed Wedge Ring

I’ve had a few adornments sitting down in inventory for a long time that I haven’t tried on or gotten an impression of. This is one of them. It’s been in inventory so long that I don’t recall where I purchased it. If memory serves me correctly it is a relatively new shop that is coming onto the scene. Being a unique design, this one immediately caught my attention and found its way into my shopping cart!

Custom Sapele Wood Wavy Cock Ring

What do you do when you trawl about the Internet looking to add to your collection and fail to find anything new that especially grabs your attention? Why… have a custom adornment made! The inspiration hit me while I was wandering the random cock rings on Etsy. Funny enough, Etsy doesn’t care to comprehend the difference between a penis ring and a finger ring, often sprinkling in sponsored advertisements and “you might like” links within the search results for a cock ring. In this case, I saw a finger ring style that I had never seen before. While most purveyors of tungsten carbide rings cannot customize their offerings, I’ve had great luck with sellers on Etsy who make wooden rings being willing to make a custom piece for a bit of a larger part of the body. So, with that, I reached out to the seller and Maksym helped make it happen.

Stainless Welded Double Glans Ring

A glans ring is always a delight to have, so I own several as any collector of adornments would. But despite the number of pieces in my collection collection and despite thinking I’ve “seen it all”, every now and again a new design comes along that offers a nice surprise. That’s exactly what I found in this devilishly simple twist on a classic wire glans ring. By simply welding a second glans ring roughly at the same angle of the corona, the designers of this cheap generic ring brought something new to the table. It’s kind of one of those, “Why didn’t anyone think of this before?

Manadorned Full Crystal Pave

Yes, I’m always looking for something new to add to the collection - and given that I’ve learned how to make my own adornments from interesting materials like aluminum, it was only a matter of time before I stumbled on a new great idea. I don’t know what took so long for this design, but it finally dawned on me one day that I’ve always been a fan of mixed material adornments (such as wood/metal, aluminum/rubber, etc) and it really wouldn’t be all that hard to design a mixed material ring of my own! I have a few adornments with gems on them, but I thought it would be super interesting to revisit the ill-fated crystal pave experiment from a long while back. Surely I could make my own ring that was dashing and comfortable!

ManAdorned Smooth Aluminum

I couldn’t just make ONE new design while the creative juices were flowing, could I? Of course not! Joining the knurled aluminum design is this new sleek, smooth, and crisp cock ring. Most of my designs have an inset field with a pattern inside but I decided to go a different direction on this one after having such great feedback from the pillowed segments design.

While I love the weight of a stainless ring, this one called for a bright polish that is best achieved with aluminum to really make the design as dapper and sharp as possible. Although stainless polishes well, it’s a naturally darker metal than aluminum. For an adornment that is intended to look elegant under a pair of dress slacks, only the brighter aluminum would do. It came out great, of course, but I do have the worry that the smooth aluminum finish will accept scratches and nicks a little too easily.

ManAdorned Knurled Aluminum

Well it’s been a while since I decided to design my own adornment again… and this fine example is quite a wonderful outcome! Given that I have been successful producing geometric designs with various inlays/patterns, a question dawned on me. Why in the world don’t I have a cock ring that has a classic knurled finish to it?!? Now I do! I figured the design would come out well given that several others have been cool, but I’m actually quite surprised by how handsome this one turned out!
