The dagger is often present on men's and women's tattoos - especially those designed in old school or traditional styles. In any technique, the image looks catchy, provocative and even bewitching.

Meaning of the dagger tattoo:

• a heart pierced by a weapon is a sign of mental wounds and a thirst for revenge for the pain caused;
• a dagger piercing a rose was previously the “calling card” of a woman who killed her husband for treason;
• bladed weapons along with a skull used to be stuffed with murderers. In rare cases, this tattoo served as a talisman against robbery;
• a dagger with a snake on the “zone” was an attribute of thieves. However, sometimes such a tattoo symbolized healing from a serious illness.

In general, the image symbolizes fortitude, toughness of character and a tendency to aggression.

Regardless of the color scheme, the leaders among the preferred sketch styles are traditional and old school. On them, daggers are depicted along with hearts, roses, skulls, and snakes. Often in a tattoo the weapon appears to pierce the skin.
