I met Mitchel in Oklahoma City this last weekend. He turned me on to an abandoned church that I explored with camera in hand.
He said that he used to just have PUNX on his right hand, but later changed it to LOVE with a safety pin. Which is even more punk rock if you ask me.
Oddly this is the first set of LOVE HATE knuckles we’ve received here at knuckle tattoo central. Jackie from Boston, MA sends us these classics. It’s the story of the left hand, right hand, but here is what Jackie has to say about his set:
I feel both of these emotions all the time. And im sure everyone in they’re lives have felt love or hate it just suits me.
Ryan H. sends us these double deckers and here is his story:
Here is a picture of my knuckle tattoos. I had my hands in a weird position so the picture looks a little weird, but it’s the best picture I have of them. I got High Five on my knuckles because it’s a really Positive statement. My tattoo artist didn’t think I really wanted it on my knuckles until I came in and asked him to do it in complete sincerity. I have High Five on my upper knuckles, and just to somewhat contradict the phrase…
I originally got STR8 HATE because one of my favorite bands (xBRING IT DOWNx) has a song called Straight Hate with a pretty strong message in it. Although it may be a really negative one, it still has a lot of meaning lol.
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.
