Hard Man Outfitters C-Splint Penis Tube

Hard Man Outfitters, known for their cool designs, released this cock splint a while ago. I thought it was neat at the time I saw it, but didn’t jump at the addition. As a subscriber to their newsletter, it popped in as a sale item (or some other discount) and it reminded me that I should give it a whirl!

This splint has an interesting design. Built from aluminum and coated with a hammered gray metallic finish, it is much lighter than it appears. The full length of the splint at the bottom is just shy of 4 inches at 3.95" with a ball opening of 1.4" x 1.76". This opening has rounded edges at the corners to prevent unneeded discomfort. The splint transitions to a shaft ring gradually right around the center of the ball opening. Think of this like a triple ring cock cage that doesn’t have an opening for the cock and balls to go through. The shaft opening for the medium size is 1.365" with a hefty band at about .035" thick. The width of the shaft ring is right at 1" and features a gem embedded into the splint at the top for a bit of added flare. All edges of the splint are rounded, as you would expect, to keep sharp edges from digging in to our oh-so-sensitive flesh.

ManAdorned Stainless Heavy Glans Ring

I am always seeking new ways to grow the collection, and what better way is there than to create yet another custom adornment? Inspired by this really great slash cut glans ring, I thought the design could be improved by enhancing the fit.

So how did it turn out? Fantastic, of course! With the opportunity to 3D print multiple attempts in order to finely tune the model, this ring perfectly fits my contours. Multipe iterations were required to find the exact curve of my glans. I didn’t realize that my head has such a dramatic curve (when looking from the side) starting practically diagonally, following a gradual slope, and ending with a curve back to near vertical at the base of the ring. At the same time, like most men, the corona and overall contour of the glans is offset a bit lower. Being able to design this adornment made it possible for me to offset the center hole, curve the edge exactly as needed, and adjust the length of the ring to find the perfect union of man and metal. If there was one thing to improve it would be to make the frenulum point longer, but I suspect that would very negatively impact comfort.

ManAdorned Aluminum Net Triple Ring

OK… so in a previous review, I may have said that I cannot decide if I like the hex pattern or the net pattern better for my own custom-designed adornment. I think I’ve settled on the net pattern being preferred - and to drive the point home, I decided to build a crowning achievement in my absolute favorite adornment style: a gorgeous triple ring of this current favorite design!

The design itself just a fusion of the standard ring (review, a newly designed shaft ring and a newly designed ball ring. I had each ring manufactured standalone, and they all are wonderful as they are (which makes sense - they perfectly fit my preferred style and size).

3D Printed Split Ring

Having signed up for the hard man outfitters newsletter/insider club, I received an e-blast about some upcoming new products. One of them was a new ring called a split dome (or something similar). I had seen this kind of ring before, but forgot all about them until the newsletter popped in. It got me thinking about the style again. Being oddly shaped compared to the other adornments in my collection, I was wondering if I would even like the fit at all when a thought occurred to me: The design is simple enough that I could model and print one to find out!

Der Stahlmeister Saturn Ring

Every now and again I make sure to check in to various sources for adornments, and seldom does Etsy disappoint after filtering through the junk. Recently, I discovered Der Stahlmeister (the steel master) and was quickly drawn to their double ring thanks to the fact that it can be customized and is curved for maximum comfort. Having experimented with a home made saturn ring, I was pretty sure I would like the steel version.

Wood Hard Wear Purpleheart Cock Ring

You can read a bit more about how I came across Wood Hard Wear in my previous review, but suffice to say: new opportunities to add to your collection have come! Seeking a 1.875" ring, Renlo made this adornment from aged purpleheart and finished it with a silver leaf inlay. The end result is an absolutely stunning 1.86" ring weighing just shy of half an ounce.

I love it. This adornment is just plain beautiful. The deep color of the purpleheart offset by the silver bands is an awesome combination. Having the silver leaf grooves helps visually break up the width of the ring showing a deft eye for design. The finish on the ring is a gloss, my guess, polyurethane giving a bit of shine to the already handsome adornment. Similar to the pine plywood ring in my previous review, this one doesn’t have a radiused inner edge, but the width of the ring and smooth radius from inner to top ensures a comfortable fit. In fact, it’s so comfortable, I wore it all day and then over night as soon as I received it! As far as proportions go, this one slightly beats out the plywood design due to the thinner height of the ring (a personal preference). This makes the outer profile sit almost perfectly flush with my anatomy while fully engorged, making it appear as though the adornment is an extension of me.

Wood Hard Wear Plywood Cock Ring

Finally! Another active manufacturer in wood adornments!!! Wood Hard Wear had a brief stint on Etsy selling wood rings, but life got in the way and the shop went on hiatus. As it turns out, the world of great appreciation for adornments is a small world, and I ran into Renlo on a chance thread on Reddit! He’s been recently experimenting in designs again and is rebooting at a new web shop woodhardwear.com.

Hard Man Outfitters Monster Screwball Cock Ring

I already have a few adornments in my collection from Hard Man Outfitters, so when they released a brand new MONSTROUS ring resembling a piece of Captive Bead Ring body jewelry, my attention was immediately grabbed. Thick, heavy stainless? Polished, handsome finish? Over a pound of metal goodness hanging from your goodness? YES, PLEASE!

The package showed up in a small USPS flat rate shipping box and I knew without looking at the label what it was. This thing is heavy! As usual, the HMO packaging was nice with a branded box and branded velvet pouch to store the adornment. The finish is a nice and smooth plating… but… did I mention that this thing is heavy? It weighed in at just over a pound with an inner diameter of 1.767". This makes the wire width about .725" diameter. It came very close in weight to my current heavy weight champion (the custom design Bad Ass Workroom made for me) but ultimately is about 1.2oz shy of that beast. It completely outclassed my other CBR style cock ring that I picked up from AliExpress ages ago.

ManAdorned Aluminum Hex Field

In case you can’t tell, I’ve come to enjoy custom designing my own adornments based on whatever design thoughts pop into mind! I’ve noticed lately that a lot of things out there now have a hex pattern on them. Everything from car grilles to enterprise server faceplates seem to be sporting a six-sided grid pattern rather than a boring square or diamond pattern. Well, why not give it a shot and see how it looks?

ManAdorned Stainless Pillowed Segments

In case you can’t tell, I’ve come to enjoy custom designing my own adornments based on whatever design thoughts pop into mind! The design for this one struck me as I noticed our kitchen cabinets. When designing the kitchen a few years back, I recalled a myriad of choices regarding material/shape/cut/style/etc - just for the door frames. I remembered that we fell in love with the “pillowed” effect cabinets in a dark, rich stained color. That “pillowed” effect is what served as the inspiration for this design.
