Hello!
Welcome to Iron Raven! We are about to celebrate our 9th anniversary in our Merrill Riverside location and 17th year in business. Prior to our Merrill location, we were located in Wausau and known as Lucky Raven. We look forward to seeing you!! We only see clients by appointment, so please text or call to set up your appointment or consultation.😀
Directions are on the Contact Page!
We feature multi-award winning tattoo artist, Dave Knapp with the experience and talent to make your tattoo exactly the way you want. Specializing in custom designs, new ideas to cover-ups, Realism to Traditional, color to black & grey and anything in between! Dave’s apprentice Reanna is also available for smaller tattoos.
Our award winning piercer, Nicole, uses only implant grade jewelry for both dermal and body piercings. Message her from the piercing page for your next ear
design!
We opened in 2009 as Lucky Raven, our goal was to create an open, happy environment with private rooms, sterile and new equipment. We have since changed our name to Iron Raven Tattoo Co, added alternative body work & Reiki to our services, but our vision remains the same. We want your tattoo & piercing to be the best experience you can have with body modification!
Get inspired

In all seriousness, tattooing is an indigenous practice for many cultures and likely started off as medicinal/spiritual. Different cultures around the world have their own tattoo origins...
but really... who was the first person to get a badass scorpion? 💀
