A notorious ex-Hells Angels bikie with tattoos covering his entire body has shrugged off a stabbing attack that came within centimetres of ending his life.
Dayne Brajkovich, 44, was stabbed in the neck about 9.50pm Friday at the Ministry of Sound Classical EDM concert at Perth's Kings Park and Botanical Garden.
Police are treating as a targeted attack with the throat-slashing nearly costing Brajkovich his life - if not for the quick-thinking of a nearby doctor who saved him.
But the ex-Hells Angels bikie has admitted he was partly-responsible for provoking the savage attack.

But Brajkovich has admitted he was partly-responsible for provoking the savage attack
'I asked for it, I got it. That’s the game,' he told The West Australian.
'But I didn’t see the knife coming. Thought it got the jugular or artery but just a vein. Got it all sewn up.'
Police said he received 'a serious laceration injury to his neck' in the attack, before being rushed to Royal Perth Hospital (RPH) for emergency surgery.
Before he became Australia's most recognisable bikie, Brajkovich was a fresh-faced teenager without a tattoo in sight
It is also believed he suffered an injury to a finger as he tried to defend himself.
Detective Senior Sergeant Anthony Thompson addressed the media on Saturday afternoon, confirming they believe it was a targeted attack.
'At this stage, we believe the incident is a result of an in-house gang-related issue between the Hells Angels and a former member,' Detective Senior Sergeant Thompson said.
'The parties involved are known to each other and the possibility this incident is the result of a retribution issue is certainly an avenue we are investigating.'
Mr Brajkovic was reportedly kicked out of the Hells Angels in January 2022 after allegedly assaulting the club president at the time.
He was seen leaving RPH early on Saturday morning with his wife Jacinta, and a large dressing on his throat and a heavily-bandaged finger, before his vehicle was followed by a police detail.
Detective Senior Sergeant Thompson said police had an 'ongoing concern for his safety' and condemned the 'immature, violent outbursts'.

'If you, as an outlaw motorcycle gang, choose to inflict violence in the community, the result of that we will lawfully restrict your behaviours because we don't want members of the public being put at greater risk,' he said.
Mr Brajkovich is known for his extensive facial tattoos, and always being seen wearing his trademark gold chain and bracelet - worth about $216,000 and $103,000, respectively - as well as eight 16-karat gold rings, items he's previously referred to as his 'legal knuckle dusters'.
In January this year he was acquitted of two charges relating to alleged display of gang insignia, with WA Police having to pay him $4000 in court costs.
