Definitely the Ars Goetia, it’s by far the safest. Find a demon who’s noted as being truthful and faithful to the magician as they’ll probably give you the least trouble and go from there. Some advice:

• Make the black handled knife as the grimoire instructs. This is absolutely not optional. If something goes wrong and you don’t have it, you’re fucked. I personally found ferric chloride to be a good way to get the symbols on the blade but most engrave them. There are a lot of articles floating around regarding how to address the blood issue so do your research and disregard anything that says to use your own blood. If you have a friend who’s a vet tech even better.
• The lamens are not optional but paper does work. Most goets these days use nice “virgin” (ie new and unmarked) paper
• Don’t be a dipshit and try to replace all the names of God and angel names with different ones. These are Abrahamic spirits so use Abrahamic names.
• If the demon doesn’t deliver what you agreed to, fuck ‘em up.
• NEVER EVER pay beforehand or provide offerings unless the spirit is specifically noted as requiring one (ie Paimon).
• The Greater Key has a ton of information regarding the prep work. Use it, especially regarding pre-evocation purification rituals.
• Here’s how to make a perfect circle
• FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE GRIMOIRE

Good and try not to hurt yourself.
