Self-Inking Date Stamp - Military Style/Euro Style - S121 (Black Ink)

Works as marketed.

Smaller would be better impo... The stamp leaves a crisp clear impression that is 3/4" long even with all the bands pressed tightly together. Looks to be well made. This was the smallest i could find (where the size is listed in the advertisement.

Make sure you have a testing stamp after setting your day cause it sometimes doing line up right (always user error) but prints perfectly. I would also recommend buying replacement ink, also don’t leave in a hot car I’m pretty sure that’s why my ink dried up but been perfect since replaced and not left in my car. The wheel is a bit hard to turn when you first get but will loosen up over time as long as you don’t have long nails it will work fine! You will most likely get ink on your hand you first few times setting the days but then you learn how to touch it just right.

So the overall concept and execution of the stamp is good. It flips, deposits ink on the paper and then returns.If you press too hard however, the top, center portion of the date doesn't apply ink to paper well, if at all.

I needed this to stamp page numbers on a book. I had to cover the bottom of the stamp to prevent ink from other spaces. I dont see how this is usable unless you use the entire row of numbers and symbols. I made it work but it wasn't just usable out of the box for me. The ink quality was good, it stamped clearly.

The past two times this has come in it has had no stamp ink pad delivered with it. This seems like a quality control issue. There is no information on how I would obtain another ink pad either!

This inked date stamp is horrible!!!! After inserting ink pad, I attempted to set the date. Setting the date was the most complicated process I have had to do. My thumb and pointer finger are BLACK!!!! And stained that way. I am totally unsatisfied with this product. I used a pre-inked date stamp in my work and never had this happen. I’m sorry I ordered this product. And it costs to much to send it back. I’ll throw it away.

I have been wanting a stamp for my journal, but I write dates military style. This is the first stamp I have ever found with this format and I am thrilled! Getting the inkpad installed is a bit fiddly, but as long as you can thread a needle, you can load this stamp. Attached are a couple photos with style and size. It is that slightly wonky registration that makes it great. I am very happy so far!
