i've been rockin' "knucks" for a while now. They're killer (no pun) and add a subtle bad-ass vibe to already stylin' garb.
Go knucks!

So where did he get those great knuckles - I'd like to get a pair for myself.

Fashion's dead. . .next.

Hmm, while the brass knuckles may seem 'hip', has anyone thought about the fact that in a lot of states they are illegal? Who wants the police bugging them or giving them a ticket and having the knuckles confiscated just for style sake. It's really a silly look, unless you are real thug and I don't think someone working at a Diesel Store is probably a real thug. Looks like a look that could realistically get your butt kicked by a real thug. LOL

I agree. It looks ridiculous but as Tom Ford would say, "its about personal style."

I've got a pair of brass knuckles (that my grandfather gave me) under my bed. The only time I think I would look good in them is kicking someones ass. Why would I wear them as a fashion accessory? May be I should start wearing spurs too...

Ok, first off, they aren't brass knuckles, its simply 2-finger and 3-finger rings. They have no functionality as a weapon; they are actually more dangerous to the person wearing them than anyone else. Brass knuckles provide a resistance flank - that's what makes them a weapon. I think they're hot - don't hate!
