Designer Kyle Hopkins created these amazing brass knuckles that incorporate the outline of a gun into a [feminine floral design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tennis-bracelet). Hopkins is just a student in a [jewelry design program](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gaillard-jewelry) in London, but he's already showing a lot of promise.

These golden brass knuckles are ready for a rap video. If Hopkins can get some connections in the industry, we'll probably be seeing some of these [elegant brass knuckles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu) in a video.

**Implications** - This product targets the female demographic. The image of a female boxer is one that might not be conventional; however, it provides a sense of empowerment that may have been absent in previous times due to media images of dainty females. Businesses can market themselves to cater to the new female demographic of empowered women.
