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

This hand comes to us from Gary T. He has this to say:

I decided to finally make the plunge and get my right Knuckles tattoo’d-

I always wanted to get “SEEK” - as in Seek & Do Gods Will.

I am a recovering Alcoholic & Drug addict and seeing it on a daily basis helps remind me who is really in control.

Kiki S. sends us this picture of her diamond, and has this to say:

I got this tattoo for 1 month now, I got it done in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
It stands for a lot of things, that I can’t all explain…
But It remains me of a surten time, place en friends!

A super gnarly set of knuckles from Nina in Cuba:

Hey!

Sending my boyfriends PUNK, relly fresh,
I like when it bleeds, he screamed, ha ha!
made in Cuba, sept this year.

Thanks, Nina

Thank you Nina. Those are raw and it’s one hell of a photo of ‘em.

What can I say about Ozzy. I think he was on a reality TV show or something. But seriously, I can’t� say anything about Mr. Osbourne than has already been said elsewhere better.

Thanks Mr. Drum Teacher for sending in this awesome picture of Ozzy’s knuckles!

These knuckle tattoos come from just south of Montreal, Canada. I’ll let Ace do the story telling:

I am a professional tattooist and owner of Ace Valiant Tattoos in Ch�teauguay, Qu�bec, Canada. I decided last year to finish my right sleeve (pretty much Christian theme) with writing on the top of my hand and my knuckles.

Because I already have Jesus face in my inner forearm with IHS lettering underneath, John the Baptist on the top forearm, immersed in water, a dove and light, also the verses of Mathew 3:13-17 from the bible to demonstrate the fact Jesus got baptized.

It was pretty logical to put something to fit the rest.

On my knuckles, you can read some INRI in some old school lettering which means: Jesus of Nazareth King of Jews. I also have a little black cross over my right thumb,and some writing on the top of my hand which says: Only God can judge me.
