NEW TATTOOS FROM DAVE KNOX 907 KUSTOM TATTOO FAIRBANKS ALASKA ak907tattoo@icloud.com

Got some sweet new tattoos done recently here in Two Rivers Alaska. I want to thank ALL the nice people that have supported me here in Fairbanks during my stay here. I never Imagined the love and support coming in just before leaving Alaska. I was blown away by the response on a single tattoo auctioned at the breast cancer awareness fund raiser last month.
 I have been donating a hour tattoo for the last three years and they all went for the price of the tattoo but this year my 1 hour tattoo auctioned to $6,000 what a show of support from the women and their loved ones here in Fairbanks!! Thank You Ladies!!!!! I am Leaving Fairbanks for a working vacation in Costa Rica and I am excited to get to meet some new friends there and see some beautiful new sights. contact info for David Knox is...   ak907tattoo@icloud.com   Have a good day!

LATEST TATTOOS FROM DAVE KNOX 907 KUSTOM TATTOO FAIRBANKS ALASKA 907-978-8714

Wow!!! What a amazing, crazy, summer here in interior Alaska, I have been blessed to learn that my mojo is still on...oh yeah!  and at 57 the life I had once known it is gone, the guy I was is gone, all because of making time to get to know myself... Rest, meditation, eating better with more plant based foods in my diet, and to make decisions totally on what my heart is telling me instead of my head..  I am now sorry to announce the loss of my assistant / apprentice Ms. Hobson that I had chosen to train here in Fairbanks, never before in my many years of tattooing have I had a smoother running shop for some great clients and myself. THANK YOU G!!!!!  And I also want to thank my friends and some people that I had not known before for being there for me during the craziest, and wildest week of my life this summer...To Mike for always being there for me, and having another job plan in mind for me. And to my friend Rose for helping me understand my situation a little more and to worry a little less.. Like dealing with graffiti vandalism on the door of my shop, getting evicted, and then to be blessed with so much help from my neighbors, Jeff McFarland and councilwoman Katherine with my vandalism problem by supplying me with listening ears, tools, and paint THANK-YOU!!!! And a big up to the Alaska State Trooper for not taking me and my speeding Kawasaki GPZ the following day to the bull pen when I clearly stated to him that I had no excuse for operating my vehicle at such a excessive speed on Parks Hwy. I want to regretfully officially announce the closing of my Barnette shop location due to the building being sold and want to thank all the wonderful clients and visitors that I came to know there... Thank-You Fairbanks!!! Here is some of the last photos from Barnette street studio and of the first tattoo I did  with the new style cartridge equipment and some pictures of my latest tattoo work from my new home shop in Two Rivers Alaska. Enjoy!

TATTOO REWORK 1990-2016 TATTOO BY DAVE KNOX ON PHOTOGRAPHER MICHAEL DEATON @ DEVIL'S HOLLOW TATTOO FESTIVAL FT WAYNE IN

I was taking some photo's of the Devil's Hollow Tattoo Festival in Fort Wayne on my Indiana visit this summer when  photographer and friend Michael Deaton stopped me to asked if he could take a couple pictures of me, then he showed me his tattoo that I had done in 1990 and I laughed and said I could fix it for free only if he would visit me here in Alaska.. Well... I quickly changed my tune and asked him if I could repair it on Sunday my scheduled day to work and we had a crazy ass good time for sure!!! Mike thanked me for being the guy that made all this tattoo art legal in Indiana and then I realized he had no idea his older brother Jim Deaton  my biker friend was responsible for me doing my first tattoo on him by believing in me enough to tell me to take the tattoo equipment for the Harley motor from Dan Wilhelm and do my first tattoo in 1985!!!!  Mike gave me Jims address and after tearing the booth down and then I paid a visit to the man who believed in me!!! Had some good laughs about girls we had in common and the good old days. Thank-you Jim for changing my life FOREVER!!!
