Katana Tattoo Photo #12552

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

Blackwork tattoos use solid black ink in bold, graphic compositions. The style ranges from large filled areas and heavy patterns to intricate designs that rely on contrast between ink and bare skin.

Neck tattoos are among the most visible placements, making a confident statement. The area suits small, detailed designs behind the ear or bold pieces on the side or back of the neck.
