Ideal® is the industry's leading embosser and the Model M is a step up from the less expensive No. 1, which many stores carry.

Handhelds are great for notaries on the go while desk models are best if you don't travel.

The Ideal Model M is a heavy-duty hand notary seal embosser which produces clean, crisp impressions on most paper stocks.

This embosser offers a high degree of leverage, longer paper insertion than entry-level models such as the No. 1, and a die-insert that is interchangeable with the Desk model. When you purchase the Model M handheld embosser, you will also receive a black carrying pouch.

The Ideal Model M Desk embosser features a larger body and is meant to sit atop your desk. Embossments are a bit easier with the desk style due to the greater degree of leverage it offers.

When you order the Model M hand held or Desk model, it will come with a die insert engraved with your notary commission information. If your commission information includes an expiration date, you will simply need to buy a replacement insert when your new term begins.

The Insert listed in our store is just that - the insert ONLY. If you purchase an insert, you should already have an Ideal Model M seal handle to place it in.

Embossers are sometimes called paper crimpers. In many states, an embosser alone is sufficient to perform a notarization; in others, they may only be used in conjunction with notary seal stamps.


What does the law say about the Oklahoma Notary Stamp?

Oklahoma Notary Handbook
SEAL
Oklahoma law allows for the use of either a metal seal, which leaves an embossed impression, or a rubber stamp. All notary seals shall contain the name of the notary public and the words “State of Oklahoma” and “Notary Public.” The expiration date and commission number may be part of the stamp or seal. A notary public may purchase the embosser seal or rubber stamp from various types of companies. These companies are listed in the yellow pages of the telephone book under one or more of the following categories:
  1. Office supplies
  2. Rubber or plastic stamps
  3. Seals - notary and corporation
The Office of the Secretary of State does not endorse any company that may solicit an individual for notary supplies. Likewise, the Office of the Secretary of State is not affiliated with any of these companies.

Within ten (10) days after the loss of the seal, the notary shall deliver to the Secretary of State a written notice of the loss or theft and the date the seal was first discovered missing. In addition, the notary should notify the appropriate law enforcement agency in the case of theft.

When purchasing a replacement seal, it is advisable to have a character or symbol added to the seal to distinguish it from the missing one. Within ten (10) days after purchasing a new seal, notify the Secretary of State in writing of the date of purchase and the distinguishing character or symbol added.
