Traditional straight razor tattooing is a method of tattooing that has been around for centuries. It is a form of body art that uses a sharp and pointed blade to create a design on the skin. Unlike modern tattooing, which uses electric needles and inks, straight razor tattooing requires a steady and experienced hand to create a precise and intricate design. In 2023, this form of tattooing is still alive and well, with many tattoo artists still exclusively using a straight razor to create their designs.
