DESIGNPHIL Midori 13800006 Notebook, MD Notebook, Paperback, Horizontal Ruled

Wonderful A6 size notebook. Really nice paper and perfect for use with my fountain pens.

I am a heavy journaler who uses very juicy fountain pens so as you can imagine I am extremely finicky about notebooks. The paper quality in these is absolutely lovely with very little ghosting and no bleed-through or feathering, the line spacing is my preferred 7 mm, and the binding style allows them to lie perfectly flat while remaining durable. If I had any tiny critique it's that I would love if the pages were numbered (not the end of the world to number them myself) and I would personally prefer not to have the heavier line in the center of the page because I use these for long form journaling and don't need it to divide up my pages (but it's not that big of a deal to just ignore it). The covers are a fairly stiff plain cardstock which can be decorated but I prefer to use these in my A6 size fabric covers from Hobonichi, in which they fit perfectly. The paper quality and elegantly simple form factor make them a very good buy for the price.

Probably my favorite paper. Inks look great, the pages aren’t too white, and the texture allows for a good amount of feedback so it doesn’t feel like you’re writing on glass. The actual design is great too.

A really good journal with high quality paper at am affordable prcie. It's fountain pen friendly and it fits the A6 Hobinichi Cover :D 🩷

I've grown to truly love the Midori brand, and this MD Notebook is no exception. One of its standout features is how flat it lies open, which makes it incredibly easy to write in from any angle. As someone who often angles their notebooks in odd directions while writing, this design is a game-changer. While it's not advertised as customizable, there's ample opportunity to personalize the notebook. The front and back covers, along with the spine, are simple and understated, making them perfect for adding your own touches. Whether you like to decorate with stickers, drawings, or even paint, this notebook can become uniquely yours. Overall, the Midori 1380006 MD Notebook is a superb choice for anyone looking for a reliable, easy-to-use notebook that also allows for creative expression. It's durable, practical, and aesthetically pleasing—ideal for both casual and serious writers.

Good quality. Reasonably priced. I really like writing on this paper. No bleeding with the pens I use: Kaweco, Lamy, Jetstream, Cross gel. A winner for me.

I like this little book! Perfect!!

The notebook I rec'd is damaged. The binding is torn through at the top, about 2", and so the pages are not as secure as they ought to be. I did a makeshift repair with washi tape.
