    My new tattoo

    As a birthday present from my wife, I got my first tattoo. I gave her a matching one for Christmas. The colors are different. I brought our tattoo artist (Chris) bunch of pictures of sgian dubh that I liked he came up with this image. I describe is kind of a urban sgian dubh. My wife asked for Xs in the handel (to represent my son X) and colored hers lavender (to represent my daughter). I did mine in blue (for my wife, son and daughter's eyes).



    My wife's tattoo.

    Great ink! Doesn't look like your spouse's will show out of the top of kilt hose, though...
