It sounds like it simply means the right hand is the sword hand, so the left one holds the shield. It sounds like it's basically a fancy way of saying you're right handed.
why don't you ask the person that has the tattoo?

Most people are right handed
The right hand would be the sword hand
The left hand would be the shield hand.

peter should be careful, it is correct that the weapon was to be held in the right hand and the shield with the left. it was a religious belief, christian i believe. my father is somehow still left handed after growing up in england 50 years ago, even with the nuns and teachers beating his hands when they found him writing with his left hand.

So he can tell his left from his right.
Attack with his right
Defend with his left

Tattoos suck. Their nothing but un-erasable mistakes.
