I wanted my knuckles tattooing for a long time and i did originally decide on getting Ugly Cunt across them but decided against them as i didnt want me daughter reading it and asking what it was lol. so after a LONG time deciding and many mind changes i decided to get the name of one of my favurite bands across my knuckles, at first it was only because i couldent think of out else but once done i was EXTREMLY happy with them.

Eye for an Eye, Tooth for a Tooth

My name is Andrea Bailey. I’m 22 and my knuckle tattoos were the 16th piece I’ve acquired.
I Got my knuckle tattoos in Portland Oregon at a shop call SeaTramp.
I didn’t know as I was walking in that I was going to get them. But I was there with a friend and told him I’d buy him a tattoo if he got his before mine so I had time to think about it. He agreed. 40 mins later the time arrived for me to make a decision. I said “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth..”

The guy said “what?”
I said “it’s in the Bible..you know?”

So he pulled out the Bible and we found the scripture.
I then knew I wanted the symbols (eyes, teeth) when necessary.
He decided to use the same font from the Bible for the lettering.

Some people ask why it’s backwards or hard to get at first.. My usual response is “revenge is something I don’t understand.”

Funny story about my knucks: I was going through a custody proceeding and the judge didn’t really like me. I could just read it in her face and comments. Her argument was that my knuckles/the scripture were affiliations with an Asian Gang. “Bahahhaha!” <— My response! I’m neither Asian or intimidation enough to be in an Asian Gang. (I did end up losing the case anyhow..? couldn’t tell ya why.. haha)

MOMMA D

Here are Momma D’s knuckles:

hola…i’m rhandi-jayne dollinger, aka Momma D.  pretty much every kid i know calls me that and so when i wanted to roast up my knucks, that’s what stuck. wanting to stick with a four across, we stacked the m’s in Momma as to get the whole word on.   i dig girlie skulls and thought that would balance both hands out so Dave, owner of Tattoos at the Red Room hooked me right up.  i think it came out right purty, don’t you?

CUPCAKE

Mistie  from Northern California says:

When I decided to get my knuckles tattooed I knew that I didnt want anything mean, angry or offensive. I am an insurance agent and I do work with loads of older folks. So I couldnt think of anything less abrasive than a cupcake.

SPLIFF

Erica sends us these knuckles and the story:

Growing up I use to run around with these guys that would make fun of me cause I use to have a gap in my teeth. They called me Spliff. One of the guys ended up tattooing and did my knucks: Spliff in between two teeth ;)

BROKEN

I met Angie at The Grackle, and her knuckle tattoos read BROKEN, but I didn’t see anything wrong with her. When I asked her about her knuckle tattoos, she told me that she was getting them lazered off. She said that she was drunk with a friend and just picked a word.

DEAD BY DAWN – PLANET 13

Die-hard knuckletattoos.com fan Bert sends us his knuckle tattoos and story:

Dead By Dawn is actually an accessory tattoo to by back and arm pieces. All three of these are inspired by Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead 2 film. The only real personal meaning they hold is of I guess somewhere in the Horror movie dork world. Also I wanted 10 letters for my knux and the only other thing that fit was “UNHIREABLE”.

Planet 13 is of more of a personal nature and a tribute to Wednesday 13’s Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13. Back to the Horror / Sci – Fi dork thing but some gender bending background as well.

TEA CAKE

Max Halls sends us these delicious knuckles:

I run a ladies tea club and we meet on a regular basis to bake, knit, gossip, drink tea.  Most of us have children and are very busy (I have 3 kids and run a business from home) so when we can get together its a really special time.  The tattoo reminds me of my lovely ladies and of course, my favourite thing, cake.
