A manually operated ink stamp having a base with an open bottom and an aperture in the top wall. A box-like frame having an open bottom is disposed within the base and has a lower edge. A sleeve is connected to the upper portion of the frame and extends upwardly through the aperture in the base and is connected to a handle. The handle and frame are biased upwardly with respect to the base by a compression spring that is interposed between the handle and the base. Located within the frame is a die holder that carries a printing die impregnated with ink, and the lower surface of the die projects downwardly beyond the lower edge of the frame. A threaded adjustment is provided for adjusting the vertical position of the die holder and die with respect to the frame. Applying a force to the handle causes downward movement of the frame and die holder to bring the die into contact with the material to be printed and contact of the lower edge of the frame with the material provides a stop to limit further compression of the die and control the printing impression.
