It’s time for my promised Badassworkroom BA-21 chastity device review. This is my second stainless steel device from Badassworkroom and I found much to like about it.
After wearing the device for almost a full month, I’m ready to offer my opinions on the Badassworkroom BA-21 chastity device. I purchased my first Badassworkroom custom device, the BA-12, to satisfy my curiosity about what it felt like to wear a device with a 90-degree angled cage. It intrigued me from a purely aesthetic perspective after seeing and liking the looks of a 90-degree angled cage on another manufacturer’s website. But to my surprise, I found the device satisfyingly comfortable to wear. Also, the BA-12 gave me the chance to experience the high quality workmanship that the company puts into their custom-made steel devices. So, I felt no hesitation about ordering another custom device from them, but this time one I intended to wear regularly. And I chose the BA-21.
BA-21 Specifications
The above specifications are what I ordered based on my specific measurements. But the BA-21 is fully customizable, so you can order this device to fit your own unique measurements. I ordered mine with a “MagicLocker” integral lock, but you can also get this device with a common padlock or a proprietary locking security screw.
Components
The BA-21 is a standard ball-trap device and comes with three components:
- Base Ring
- Penis Cage
- Locking Device
BA-21 Physical Details
I ordered the BA-12 in surgical stainless steel. But the device is also available in titanium for an additional cost of $100.00 for those seeking a lighter weight cage. This device, which I find quite comparable to my Mature Metal Jailbird, is marginally lighter than the Jailbird even with the integral lock, which requires they make the base ring from slightly larger diameter, heavier stock. All the welds are smooth and the device measurements are exactly what I ordered. In my opinion, the quality of workmanship is as good as you will find in the custom-made male steel chastity device industry. My device fits perfectly and the connection between the cage and base ring is tight with no play. Like the BA-12 I ordered previously, the integral lock is stainless steel instead of brass and the insert is slightly longer than the brass inserts, which means you won’t be able to switch out this MagicLocker with one of the brass ones you may have that came with some other device.
BA-21 Chastity Device Use
The BA-21 is another standard ball-trapping device. You insert your scrotum and testicles into the base ring, pull your flaccid penis through the ring to rest atop your testicles, and slide the cage on. Then you mate the two components together and lock up. The device feels quite secure, but as we know, standard ball-trapping device security is mostly an illusion unless you combine a PA piercing with the device to eliminate the possibility of escape. There are options available at an additional cost for guys with PA piercings to gain added security. I had no ball slippage issues with the device, which means the 10mm default factory-set gap worked great for me and probably will for most guys. But the gap is customizable too.
Precautions to Consider While Wearing the BA-21
The usual precautions apply as with any ball-trapping male chastity device. Choosing the proper size base ring is important. Choosing a base ring size that is too small can cause significant issues, including the risks associated with compromising your circulation. As a rule of thumb, skin discoloration or skin temperature of the scrotum that feels noticeably cooler than normal body temperature are indications of reduced circulation.
Comfort and Feel of Wearing the BA-21
I find the BA-21 provides me the heft of stainless steel that I like without being uncomfortably weighty. As mentioned it weighs slightly less than my Mature Metal Jailbird. The interior of the cage feels satisfyingly smooth. It’s one of the most comfortable devices I’ve worn and required no adjustment period. It felt comfortable the first time I put it on and has remained that way. As far as standard ball-trap devices without the added security of a piercing go, it feels comfortably secure.

Hygiene Considerations When Wearing the BA-21
Thanks to the cage-type open architecture, the BA-21 gets high marks in the hygiene department. It has been simple to keep clean using my handheld shower head. I’m certain I could wear it indefinitely with no need to remove it periodically for cleaning. With four vertical and two horizontal bars on the nose of the cock cage, expect to sit to pee to avoid making a mess. I haven’t even experimented with trying to stand while urinating while wearing this device.
Final Thoughts
The Badassworkroom BA-21 is a well designed and well made device. It’s on the lighter end of the spectrum of stainless steel open-type cage devices, and super comfortable. It’s a device that deserves serious consideration by those seeking a steel cage-style device.
At $300.00 USD for the stainless steel model ($400.00 for titanium), this is outstanding quality at a reasonable and affordable price for a custom-made stainless-steel male chastity device. For comparison purposes, the Mature Metal Jailbird, a device I feel the BA-21 matches up well with, retailed at $330.00 when I published this review.
Something I and others raved about when Badassworkroom first came on the scene was the company’s unheard of fast delivery. Unfortunately, all good things come to an end and that amazingly fast delivery has ended at Badassworkroom. It took more than twice as long for me to receive this device than the first one I ordered. The owner told me it’s because they have become more well known and are getting far more orders. I suspect that China’s “zero COVID policy” with the frequent lock downs has also slowed deliveries. But of course I wouldn’t have expected the owner to confirm that for the obvious reasons and he didn’t. Still, Badassworkroom’s shipping times remain in line with most other custom chastity device manufacturers and is still better than some.
Disclaimer: This review represents my own honest opinions. I purchased this device at the full retail price using my own funds, and I have no affiliation with Badassworkroom other than being a satisfied customer.
