Danger Dagger

A serpent wound tight around a blade, curves against edges in high-contrast black and white. It is one of tattooing's oldest pairings, temptation and consequence sharing a hilt, drawn here with the visual tension turned all the way up. Size & Placement The 6.3 x 3.15 inch horizontal format sits well across the forearm, chest, or above the ankle, anywhere the blade can lie level. Semi-Permanent Ink, No Needles The ink is semi-permanent: it strikes to full depth within 24 hours, holds its coil for up to 10 days, then lets go cleanly. No needles, despite appearances.
