FEAR HOPE

fear_hope

Alan Mandic sends us these knuckles with the following story:

I recently and finally got my knuckles tattooed.  I have been wanting them for a year now, and finally settled on what I wanted about 6 months ago.  I had them done at Tattoo Mark’s Studio I in Souderton PA, by Frankie G. and Lowercase J (From Studio II). I figured if I was getting both hands done, why not at the sametime?  Whenever anyone asks what hurt the worst, I can’t say.  When one hand was being hurt so was the other, so I couldn’t focus on it, ha. 

I got Fear Hope because I often find myself stuck in the same old rut in life.  It means that you shouldn’t sit around hoping things will happen, you have to go out and make them happen.  So Fear Hope.  I have plans to add on already, maybe a ME under FEAR just for fun.

MIND FOOD

mind_food

Pablo Escobar sends us this set of knuckles:

I got my knuckles done at Elite Piercing and Tattoo Shop in Modesto, CA.  Mind Food to me encompasses my passion: gaining knowledge.  I chose the phrase and location because I wanted to make a bold “in your face no looking back” statement that sums me up.  I’m a psychology major going on to medical school, and “mind” represents not just the brain as an organ, but the abstract concepts of the mind–faith, knowledge, behavior, morality, philoshophy, etc.  One shoud always be gaining knowledge; always be questionning everything around you, reflecting inward and reading as much as possible to understand the world.

HARD LUCK

hard_luck

Today’s knuckles come from Jarod Bass:

It’s been a rough year. My wife got Cancer and if that didn’t create enough doctor bills, I then proceeded to get crushed by a car on my motorcycle. So one of my final days of putting my bike back together I woke up, tagged the bike and then immediately went to the tattoo shop to tag my knuckles. Spur of the moment as hell.
Also, wife beat the cancer, and I’m back to walking and riding again!! Can’t hold us down!

HAND MADE

Garrett Styles sends us these awesome knuckle tattoos:

hand made, represents 3 aspects to me. first and most importantly, I am a christian and believe that we are all hand made by God himself. secondly, i am  a mechanic and do all my work with my hands, i make a living with them and support my family with them, so to me , my family is hand made. Thirdly, i am into 4×4 trucks and there is alot of fabrication involved, and i always prefer to make what i can rather than buy it. being hand made. 

all my work has been done by Baillie Fruson @ eye of the needle saskatoon saskatchewan.

RUFF LIFE

Mike Ruff sends us theses:

the reasoning behind me getting “RUFF LIFE”  on my knucks was because Ruff is my last name and it just fit well together…besides…i’ve had a pretty “ruff life”
