The blade shape gives strong directional flow for placement. A katana can also symbolize protection or personal resolve, especially when paired with traditional motifs.

Fine-line tattoos use a single thin needle to create delicate, precise designs with minimal line weight. The result is a subtle, almost sketch-like quality that suits detailed small-scale work.

The inner arm offers a soft, relatively flat surface that suits detailed and sensitive designs. It's a semi-private placement, visible only when the arm is turned or raised.
