You ever use that stuff?

I never have but worked with a guy that did for a while. Looked like a bitch to use. Can only be made in small batches. Like a days worth.

Sumi ? Damn i read sushi and ordered a truck load ! kidding

I've only read about it Julio, mainly in American Tattoo Master .As for the shop itself apparently it's a semi -secret -sacred location which is revealed to the Bloodwork boys by Chris Trevino in Osaka.

Only thing like that in London involves masks and swingers .

I've got a fair amount of that stuff jabbed into me. Chris Trevino grinds his own black sumi, as does Horitomo. Here's a pic I snapped of Horitomo prepping for my first tebori session:

I'm corny, but I really felt that it added something to the whole ritual.
