Dagger is used to take life so a dagger tattoo is symbolic to sacrifice and bravery. However, there are even more meanings of dagger tattoos when they are combined with other designs. Usually people do not try just dagger tattoo but a combination of another tattoo with the dagger. The most common combinations are dagger rose, dagger snake and dagger blood tattoo.
