| Disadvantages | |
| Stamps by Good Characters | Typical Carved Stone Chops |
| The stamp is housed in a modern European-crafted stamp casing. Self-inking stamps cannot be registered by residents of Japan or Taiwan as official seals. | Special ink for stone chop takes a long time to dry. Carved by unknown artists, questionable translations, and disproportional characters often seen. Drop it once and it could chip. |
| Bottom Line | |
| Stamps by Good Characters | Typical Carved Stone Chops |
| Combining Asian tradition and modern innovation, stamps made by Good Characters are authentic yet highly usable. If you are looking for a daily-use, heavy-duty business stamp then this is for you. If you need to stamp 200 certificates or invitations in a hurry then this is definitely for you, too. | Difficult to get sharp and clear impressions on today's paper, the stone chop is more for display than actual usage. If you want something that looks attractive but does not need to be practical, this one is for you. |

Good Characters fashions its stamps after the authentic stamps of China, Korea, and Japan. The Dojo stamp is inspired by the Great Seals—the national seals—of the Republic of China and the Republic of Korea, which have thick borders.
The Style 1 Dojo stamp, the school stamp, is inspired by the Great Seal, the most authoritative symbol. Therefore it has a thick border. Other authentication stamps and individual name stamps have, appropriately, thinner borders.
The Style 2 Dojo Stamp is inspired by the Great Seal of Japan and it has a thin border. The designs of the official seals of Japan were created in 1874. The characters are carved as thin lines in a square bordered with a thin line.
Dojo Stamp with six characters: Kim's Taekwondo. The last character on the bottom left-hand corner means Seal or Signature. Therefore, the stamp reads “Kim's Taewondo Seal” or “Authenticated by Kim's Taekwondo.”
