This just in:

I decided on this tattoo because I have been called “Cool Hand Luke” since I was a little kid.

Friday’s knuckles come courtesy of Kenneth F. of Brockton, Massachusetts and he is awesome:

I got the idea from the genre of music and it also reflects on me as a person and my lifestyle. Truly i am a nerd at heart <3. I am a nerd and I’m proud to say that I’ve role played, played magic, played video games for 24 hours straight, and that I’ve watched the entire series of Ranma 1/2 in japanese. I love who i am and i love my knuckle tat’s! (btw I’m always turned on!)

Ruby Riot poses the question, to which I answer: Why not? She’s got her own reason WHY:

My knuckles were done after a discussion with my line-manager and a lot of thought.
Originally I was torn between a lot of things; Kamikaze, Maverick, Renegade and Ruby Riot until my friends pointed out that I should get my favourite word, also a question, simply ‘Why?’
It sums me up, the fact I never lost my childlike curiousity and question everything. It’s not something that other people can label me with either which is important because of the work I do (I am a youth worker, I have to question everything and find out about people’s motives, challenge their behaviour. That kind of thing)
Maybe one day I’ll come up with something as equally personal for my right hand, the reason behind ‘Why?’ being on my left is because I have little fingers and the ‘W’ wouldn’t have fitted on my little finger :D

Mitch here likes to name drop. His own name in any case:

Well i always wanted to get my last name tattooed on my body like my back or neck or something, and i stared thinking about it and then i decided to get my name tattooed on my knuckles! and i love it.

Got these in a while ago from Nivek the artist who tattooed them:

Done on Ryan, a human douche bag, and zombie lover.

He’s been to the cemetery that was used In the 1968 Night of the Living Dead…

Done by some other douche bag tattoo artist… “Nivek” @ Kitchener Tattoo.. in Kitchener, ON

Gavin D of New Zealand sends us the knuckles of him an his buddy:

heres a shot of me (I’m on the right) taken on vans Warped tour in 05. the knuckles on the right belong to my buddy james the stage tech for MXPX, he got them tattooed mid tour with “MEXICANO” and after seeing them i thought we’d form a tour bond by getting mine done.. as I’m from new zealand and we get called Kiwi’s (after our national bird not the fuzzy fruit,haha) I ended up with “KIWICANO”. so here we are reprezenting with pride.

These beauties come on the hands of Kristy T, and here is her story:

My Great grandfather was in the Navy and later a barge Cpt. on the Ohio river. I was given my middle name of Lee after him. He was heavily tattooed and had Love and hate on his knuckles so I guess what I am getting at is that it was in memory of my Great grandfather.
