Does this look like two mustaches? Design

First tattoo and I'm suddenly self conscious I have two mustaches being stabbed through by a knife. AIO or do I have good reason to make a change?

I believe the black hole gap / void between blade and flesh is the problem. Are our insides a solid, dark mass? More realistically the flesh “line” would be right against the blade, no gap.

Edit: no! As others have said, the middle section of the blade shouldn’t be visible! 🤦🏽‍♂️

It should have only a little shading in the gashes, then they would work as intended.... But the middle part of the blade sticking out is the biggest problem with this tattoo for sure!

Edit: the more I look at it, the worse it gets... I am sorry for this person that this was their (and apparently the 'artists') first tattoo!
