The blade form gives a strong, direct visual that can feel both elegant and dangerous. A knife can also represent cutting ties or defending boundaries, so it is important to choose the tone you want.

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.
