Kokuyo has an impressive lineup of Campus notebooks, the most popular of which is their inexpensive notebook aimed at students. Look beyond that basic Campus notebook, though, and you’ll find a variety of notebooks with higher-quality paper options. Today we’re going to take a look at one of those notebooks, the Kokuyo Campus High Grade notebook with CYO-BO paper. First …
Not too long ago Kokuyo came out with a new line of notebooks with an interesting twist. These notebooks have three different paper types that are meant to appeal to different paper preferences. They named the lineup Perpanep, which is an anagram of “pen paper”. The idea is that each paper type has different characteristics, specifically how they feel to …
In the world of fountain pens, Rhodia paper is somewhat ubiquitous. It is widely available and, while it is not extraordinary, is fountain pen friendly. When the Rhodia Goalbook was first introduced, I didn’t pay much attention to it. It seemed like a Leuchtturm, only made by Rhodia. It wasn’t until it kept popping up in comments as something people …
Most fountain pen users should be familiar with Leuchtturm notebooks. They are widely used by many people as daily planners, diaries and bullet journals. Unfortunately, while the paper is good, it is not great. It tends to be somewhat inconsistent and is prone to slight bleedthrough. When I heard that Leuchtturm had a version of their popular notebook with 120gsm …
Last year my brother gave me a Lemome notebook as a gift. I had never heard of the brand before and, from what I can tell, it is only sold on Amazon. Of course, with any notebook that I’ve never tried before, I was curious as to how it would perform with fountain pens. The paper is surprisingly thick, but …
Paper is something that I think about fairly often, but surprisingly I had never given much thought as to how the notebooks that are sitting on my desk get designed. As far as I knew, they were designed by elves. Well, I don’t know any elves, but I do know Rachel, and she designed a notebook! Specifically, she is the …
Profolio has been releasing some great notebooks in the past few years. There was the Oasis, then the Oasis Light, both of which are very nice. The Profolio Oasis Summit is the newest notebook in the Oasis lineup. While it has some features that may easily make it a favorite for people who bullet journal, it might just turn out …
Nuuna notebooks remained a bit of a mystery to me until recently. They don’t seem to be very popular in the States, so I’m sorry to say that I’d never even heard of them. Someone commented on a blog post suggesting I try them, which first brought them to my attention. Then I noticed that someone I follow on Instagram …
If you’re connected to the online fountain pen community in any way, you’ve probably heard rumblings about Tomoe River paper lately. If you haven’t heard yet, it seems that Tomoegawa, the company who manufacturers Tomoe River, has plans to shut down the machine that currently makes Tomoe River later this year. A replacement machine for manufacturing has not yet been …
I was chatting with a friend recently and the topic of bullet journals came up. She thought it looked like a good system and, knowing I use one, wanted to hear my thoughts on it. I am not a strict bullet journaler, but do try to keep one for my daily schedule and routines, as well as lists I use …
