Sekkaboku — also known as Tsurigane-Sumi, "hanging bell ink" — is a Kyukyodo inkstick made specifically for Takuzuri and Oshigata, the Japanese art of rubbing: laying paper over an object and rubbing the stick across it to transfer patterns and characters onto the page.

Though it photographs grey, the ink itself runs true black. Its name comes from its shape, echoing the great hanging bells found in temples across Japan, Korea, and China — the kind rung to mark the hour or call a ritual to order.
