on saleApica CD-15 B5 Notebook - Navy, Lined

Unfortunately not my favorite. I really love the size and the quality of the notebooks, but I found the paper too slick for fountain pen writing, particularly with a medium nib. Writing appeared very light and ink inconsistent in how it laid down from word to word. That said, F nib felt a bit better!

I love how smooth the paper is, how protective the covers are, and that these come from a great little business!

Love it!! I have been ordering these notes for years now.

These notebooks are excellent. The dry time is a bit slow for me as a fast writing lefty, but that is expected of nice paper by almost any manufacturer. The feathering and bleedthrough have not been an issue for me, but I generally use quite fine nibs and write quickly so little excess ink sits on the page. The paper texture is excellent, being very pleasant to use with any of my pens.

I absolutely love this notebook. The paper is super smooth and I've had no issues with bleed through or ghosting. Granted, I don't use any broad nibs, but for my extra fine-medium nibs, this notebook is fantastic. Really impressive quality for the price!
