Hawt indeed Trent, good to have you on board…
ROFL LAMO
Ummm… Yep, we got a funny one here:
My name is Jeff Cotter and the story behind me getting mine done is that Im a 28 year old man who recently moved 2500km for work and has changed careers from office worker to mine worker. I wanted to get something funny as most of the knuckle tatt’s I’ve seen are way to serious… I did it for the lulz.
Pac Man
Oh my God. Every once in a while something comes along that just reminds you of how great what you are doing is. This is a pure and perfect example. Jared P. sends us these knuckles and reminds us how important it is to keep this site going. Thank you so much for sending them in. Here is his story:
These are loved by everyone who sees em. I got em 3 years ago, and they need to be redone. I was told that the color would be hard to keep. I went with the pixelated Ms. PacMan on my ring finger so we could get married ♡!
The heart is from the end of Act 1 on Ms. Pacman when she meets Pacman and finds the heart…. thats why Pacman is on my index finger facing the heart. My pinky is a Pretzel also from Ms. Pacman. I went with the Pretzel instead of cherries or strawberries cause it didn’t seem to fit in with the other food Ms. Pacman eats… kinda like I don’t fit in with other people. And on my right hand are the ghosts. I have Inky, Pinky, Stinky, and Sue. One is the scared variation. For the most part everybody with Knucks tattooed is trying to say something. I couldn’t sum up what I wanted to say in 8 letters for the rest of my life… but I was ready to get my knuckles done, and didn’t want words. I guess I’m saying I love old school video games… and that I grew up in the 80’s. I wanted them to be pixelated to look original.
GET RAD
PEEK A BOO
In the news, mispelled knuckle tattoos
The Huffing Post has an article on misspelled tattoos. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long to get to the set of knuckle tattoos pictured below.
To read the rest of the article check out: Misspelled Tattoos: Permanent And Hilarious. I think I would have said permanent and tragic instead of “hilarious”, but that is just me.
I attended the Star of Texas Tattoo Convention and took a whole bunch of photos of knuckle tattoos!
Check them out:

Tonight I got to hang out with Bones DeLarge of The Lower Class Brats fame. We talked knuckle tattoos (naturally) and rockers local and international. Bones asked if he sent me a picture tonight if it would be on the website tomorrow. The answer is yes, they are.
Now send me the story when you get the chance!
“COSY” JEFF and “FAT SAM”
Back in March, I ran into a couple of blokes in an ATM vestibule at the
corner of 24th Street and 7th Avenue in Manhattan.
I say “blokes” because both men were visiting from England. One of them,
Jethro “Jeff” Wood, is a tattoo artist and considerably inked. His pal, Sam, was likewise decorated.
I posted photos of some of their work on my blog Tattoosday here.
But I held something back from the post. Of course, both men had Knuckle Tattoos.
First off we have Jeff’s “COSY” which is the Anglicized version of “cozy”:
Why “COSY”? Because, Jeff said with a gleam in his eye, “My bird loves
being cosy”. By bird, of course, he did not mean his parakeet, but his
girl. I’d elaborate further, but I don’t want to have to spell everything
out, okay?
Next was Jeff’s friend Sam, who sported these knuckles:
“Why FAT SAM?” I asked. He just smiled, patted his small (by American
standards) beer belly and said it was because he was so fat!
It was a treat meeting these two guys and even more fun talking to them about their tattoos.
Thanks to Jeff and Sam for sharing their digital ink here with us on
KnuckleTattoos.com!
