Black Dagger Tattoo

Got a tattoo by Jesse. He did a great job. The shop was clean and they take pride in the art and their work. He was patient while I worked through my ideas. Price was fair. Definitely go check him and black dagger out if you need a tattoo.

These dudes are nothing less than A+. I’ve been tattooed several times here, and each time is a total treat. Today I had my solar plexus tattooed by Eric and he was an absolute angel. Not gonna lie, getting tattooed hurts, but he made it as painless and quick as possible while also taking into consideration all of the cool details I wanted and laying down a solid piece that’s gonna look amazing for years to come.
If you’re in the market for a great tattoo in a clean and professional shop, look no further than your friendly neighborhood Black Dagger Tattoo!

In the city of Austin, you have a plethora of choices when it comes to tattoo shops. But honestly, why would you go anywhere besides Black Dagger??? I’ve been tattooed by Jesse several times, and have followed him from shop to shop (yes, he’s just that good). I trusted Jesse enough to take my son to him to get his first tattoo. All the guys at Black Dagger are so friendly and funny. This place is super professional, while still keeping it light and fun. Hands down, best place in Austin if you want to get a tattoo.

Jesse Crowley AKA Jesse Vohmit has done all of my work over the past 4 years. He is talented to say the least. I refuse to let anybody else tattoo me! Not only is he passionate about his job but he always takes the time to draw up exactly what I want. He doesn’t try to persuade me to do something he likes, it’s always about what I want! I hate to brag but I am constantly getting compliments on my tattoos, I work at the farmers markets all around Austin and the customers constantly come up to me and ask where I get my work done. If you are looking for a rad dude who loves his job, respects his clients and truly is so damn talented go to JESSE!

Been tattooed here by Eric and Aj, great work, great shop vibe, great flash. The dagger Eric Solis did for me was so badass that someone tried to mug me a few days after I got tattooed and the dagger flew right off my arm and stabbed the mugger in the leg. Thanks for saving my life Eric!

I’ve had Eric Solis do two pieces on me so far and both have been incredible experiences. The guy is a great up and coming tattoo artist here in ATX and I can’t wait to have my whole right leg done by him. Love the shop environment too. All the other artist have been super nice and cool there every time I stop in.

I’ve been tattooed here by Jesse three times and Eric twice and I can honestly say this is my favorite shop in Austin. Very clean and inviting space and all the guys that work here are super friendly, funny, professional, and very talented (not to mention they’re all pretty darn cute). Most recently, Jesse did a large folk dragon piece on my thigh, 3 sessions and they seemed to all go by very quickly. The colors have healed extremely vibrant and the linework is superb. I get compliments on it every single day, it is by far my favorite piece. Jesse is extremely talented and has become my go-​to guy. The first time I was tattooed here was by Eric when he was still apprenticing and I am very happy with how that piece, a grim reaper with a cool little gold tooth, turned out. He also did a really cool panther/​butterfly above my knee that I always get compliments on. I’m getting tattoed by AJ sometime in the near future and I am very much looking forward to it. I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for superb work from some really rad dudes.

Cute shop, nice dudes, amazing art. Love all of it! Just got my Capricorn tattoo yesterday by the ever so talented and extremely good looking Jeremy Cook. I had shown him a picture a few days prior to give him an idea of what I wanted. He totally nailed it! This is the second time now that he has made me an extremely satisfied customer and I absolutely cannot wait to go back for many more. The other guys in the shop were super friendly too.

Round Two!
So I had this «meh» looking retro robot. Jesse not only fixed up the robot but added a killer rococo frame around it. Flawless work again. I cannot say enough about Jesse and the whole shop.
Keep up the good work!

Just got my tattoo done at black dagger tattoo! Looks awesome! Good job Jesse! Definitely coming back for more work. Check them out!

Just got my first tattoo done here. Amazing experience! AJ walked me through he whole thing, explained everything and created exactly elwhat I was hoping for! Great studio! «Sailor» tattoos on the wall but these guys can do whatever you need. I got a Calvin and Hobbes and it turned out perfect! Loved my experience here.

These guys are legit. I’ve been tattooed by Jesse for around 4 years now. The shop is filled with talented guys. Couldn’t be happier with all my experiences there. Super clean shop. Everyone is professional and willing to work on any ideas you have for pieces. I recommended this shop over any other.

I’ve been Tattooed by Jesse multiple times at several shops around town. Now he is an owner and this is by far my favorite shop I’ve visited since living here. Super clean and operated by stand up dudes.

AJ has done the majority of my tattoos. Excellent at cover ups, great original pieces, super cool shop, awesome dudes. I can’t imagine going to any other place.

I have been tattooed by Jesse twice. Once at his old shop, and again at his new shop. Great line work. Great artistry. Great artistic vision. My dad was a local musician (Don Walser of Don Walser and the Pure Texas Band) and I wanted to get his guitar tattooed on my arm. I had an idea of what I wanted and Jesse knocked it out of the park. I also got 3 roses around the guitar and the detail was amazing. I’ve gotten so many compliments on that tattoo. I recently went back and got a hamsa tattoo in American Traditional style. He took a Jewish good luck charm and made it in the style of a sugar skull. I’ve gotten even more compliments on this tattoo because it’s more visible. Hell, I even got a «your skin is beautiful» compliment from a woman. Can’t say enough good things. Jesse will be finishing my arm over the next few years!

This is such a rad shop. All of the artists at that shop (AJ, Jesse, Nate, and Jeremy) are fantastic, and fun to hang out with. I’m always stoked to go by the shop either to get tattooed, or even just to hang out. Anytime friends/​people ask where to get tattooed, I have/​always will recommend this shop.

All staff very knowledgeable. Super clean shop. Seriously recommended. AJ (shop owner) has done a few of my tattoos but most recently did the most amazing cover up ever on a tattoo I thought I was going to have to get lasered off

Visited Jesse when I was in Austin early ’13, so when a few of us from our tour group decided to get some new (and first for one) ink while touring around Texas in May ’14, I had no hesitation in paying him another visit — this time at his own shop.
I let Jesse come up with his own ideas for my Texas based tattoo and am wrapped with the outcome yet again!
As well as being a great artist, Jesse is also a pretty darn nice guy!
When I eventually get the guts to get my sleeve done, I’ll make the trek all the way to Austin to see Jesse again.
Fun Fact — there’s a cool dive bar a couple of doors down from the shop — pay a visit AFTER you get your new ink!

I’m. Getting the best cover up from jesse right now!!! 2 sessions down lots to go, CAN’T wait to getback in there! These guys have skill and are some cool as artists with brilliant ideas! So glad we found you! Black daggar rocks

When I got word Jesse and AJ opened up their own, I was so happy for them and I couldn’t wait to come in check out the shop.
The shop is amazing, great location, and even more so that I live in the neighborhood, and I notice more people moving to that area.
I’ve been getting tattooed by Jesse for about a year now. Honestly, this man, never ceases to amaze me! I came to Jesse with three basic things; a snake, a Victorian skeleton key, and lightning, and it was all this piece. And I let him run wild with it, and it is his vision.
HE​.HAS​.KILLED​.IT!!!
I very much support people and places I truly believe in, this is one of those places. I highly recommend anybody who reads this to go to the shop and talk to Jesse or AJ about your thoughts, and they will make it happen and work with you on it. Very artistic and very professional.
But, seriously, GO!!!
