We have been in this hand poke business for about 15 years. In the early years Hand Poke Sticks were sharpened Bamboo and that is why it is referred to as Thai Bamboo style tattoos. It was very painful and damaged the skin. It was used for many thousands of years at least 5000 years. As metal became available it slowly replaced the Bamboo stick. The stainless-steel sticks have gone through many designs. At first the rod or stick, whatever you want to call it, was sharpened at the tip. So, it could only do a single dot on one stroke in the skin just like the Bamboo stick. That’s why you would see the early days of Thai tattoos were done as dots in a line to make the tattoo design. To join the dots as they are today would take a long time with a single dot. Example below.
