The dagger as a universal symbol of betrayal and deceit.
The dagger is a well-known design in the tattoo world. A particularly popular image is a heart pierced by a dagger, clearly indicating that the person bearing it has been hurt by someone close. Dagger tattoos are a classic in old school, where apart from piercing the heart, it can also be seen entwined by a snake. These tattoos look great in both the mentioned old school and graphic/illustrative designs.
