Rhodia Webnotebook Planner Questions


Monkeyc

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, first post :). Has anyone had any experience with the rhodia webnotebook planners ? Im looking at using one next year as the hobonichi is out of my tight budget this year. Are they fountain pen friendly? I use rhodia for notepads and am happy with it but I haven't been thrilled with leuchterm master notebooks which sort of puts me off their planner

I went through two—2011 and 2012—and I switched to Paperblanks in 2013. I prefer the Paperblanks paper and the smaller 3¾x5½ size. The Rhodia/Quo Vadis paper was ultra-smooth, which I liked. But it was subject to regular, moderately-severe show-through, an offense that had sent me from Moleskine to Rhodia in the first place. YMMV.

I love the smell of fountain pen ink in the morning.

Thanks for the suggestion of paperblanks, it seems I can buy them retail here in Australia so I can walk in and check them out which I like. I'm sort of struggling to find much more than moleskine in most places here, mind you the lego planner does sort of grab the eye.

If you can get them, you might try the Banditapple Carnet Planners. They are very fountain pen friendly and very inexpensive. Some people use them in their Midoris, but you don't have to. You would have to buy 2 of the weekly planners to get a full year, but for $11.00 USD, they are pretty nice.

I've used the Rhodia webplanners for the past couple years and have been very happy with their FP-friendliness.

I recently wrote a review of the Rhodia Rhodiarama notebook, which I think has the same paper as the web notebook: http://www.tina-koyama.blogspot.com/2014/09/product-review-rhodia-rhodiarama-pocket.html

 

I love it with a fountain pen and just about every pen or pencil I've ever put to it -- very smooth and lovely. It even takes a light wash if you like to sketch.

Unfortunately the Rhodia Weekly Planner does not use the same paper as the Rhodia Webnotebook. If the block inside the Rhodia Webbie cover had simply been modified to be a planner I would've been a satisfied customer. Just do that, Exaclair, will ya? Take the A6 Rhodia Webbie cover, put a planner in there on Webbie paper, and voila! And while you're at it, make an address book just like it.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
