I LOVE these notebooks. The covers are sturdy and don't require a hard surface to support writing. I use them for a variety of purposes, but separate notebooks for each purpose. The notebook in the photo is the one place information about a pending move must end up. As long as there is a notebook then no stray bit of data or contact info will be lost.
And the paper is sublime. I write with fountain pens and rollerballs and this paper never bleeds. I am tempted to hoard them because they are such perfect notebooks.

I purchased this notebook on the recommendation of The Gentleman Stationer. When the product appeared in the article, "The Best Paper for Everyday Writing," I decided to give them a try. While I can't recommend the notebook without caveats (see below), there is definitely a lot to like here. Will it replace Tomoe River as my paper of choice for fountain pens? Read on to find out.
Basic Info:
Price: $20 / notebook, bulk discounts available
Paper Type:70 GSM "bleed and feather resistant" paper
Format: Lined (also available in dot grid and "meeting" format)
Pages: 120
Pros:
- Wire binding means that the notebook is truly "lay flat." This also means that the notebook can easily be folded over and act as its own writing surface
- Paper lives up to its promise of being bleed and feather resistant; I tested it across a wide variety of inks (though the widest nib grade I regularly use is M, so take that for what you will)
- Cover is subtly designed and aesthetically pleasing
- Notebook offers a larger size than the typical A5, meaning it may be a good fit for those looking for something about as portable as an A5 with a few more inches to write on
- Notebook comes in a variety of formats and colors. I bought one in "black" and "kraft." I seriously considered buying one in "pistacio" as well, but ultimately decided against it (because I have so many notebooks, lol)
Cons:
- The wire binding can be uncomfortable under the hand, especially after a long writing session
- Paper doesn't bring out the "magic" of inks like Tomoe River, and is a bit, "toothier," as well.
- The covers (especially the back cover) frayed over time, despite the notebook rarely leaving the house (what with the global pandemic). There were no catastrophic failures, but it makes me wonder how well the notebook would hold up under more strenuous testing
- The unusual size means it'll require a custom cover (if that's your jam)
- A few of the metal rings bent a bit. Again, there were no catastrophic failures and the notebook is still functioning as intended (save the last couple of pages, which are harder to turn), but it raises concerns of durability
Conclusion:
There's a lot to like about this notebook. While the paper hasn't dethroned Tomoe River as my "go-to" choice for fountain pens, it's plays well enough with my pens and inks that I haven't minded using it as a daily driver. There are some things I would change (I wish they offered an A5 version) and some things that require trade-offs compared to other notebooks (e.g. the binding style), but it's done its job admirably. If you're not a fan of Tomoe River or if you want to try something different, this product is worth a look.

The paper quality is top notch! I add a piece of washi tape along the spiral if I'm feeling particular about the fact there is no margin.

Great product. Horrible packaging. The notebook was so damaged the pages will not turn. Not happy.
Ron H.
The best ringband notebooks out there!

The lined notebook is perfect for writing down your notes, ideas, or lists in. Its retro minimal aesthetic looks nice and doesn't distract from whatever you're working on. Smooth paper for clean writing, even in a hurry, and a sturdy back cover make it easy to write wherever you are.

The notebook is simple to look at but very well made: high quality paper, good for fountain pens, no feathering and no bleed-through. My handwriting is small, so I appreciate that the lines are not too widely spaced. A valuable option for writing of all kinds!
Bradley H.
Same great quality paper that all of their products I have used has. It is my new favorite paper company very few even come close to the quality I have experienced with this great company.

I love this notebook

Overall, this new design is not as sturdy as the old design. I probably will not be buying this particular product again... ...unless you go back to the drawing board. I prefer the stiffer outside covers on the old design. Thanks

This is my favorite notebook ever. It's spiral and opens flat or folds back on itself. The paper is opaque but not too thick, and my pen doesn't bleed through. (I use a Bic Atlantis.) Plus, the notebook is made in the USA, yay! Oh, and I like the nice touch with the rounded corners. Oh, and the soft, kraft-paper cover. Best notebook ever.
