Review Of The A4 Roterfaden Taschengebleiter In Dark Brown Leather


JohnSparegrave

Recommended Posts

Here is my video review of the Roterfaden Taschengebleiter in size A4 which I use to work as a teacher. That is where I put what I plan to do with the kids. I needed something both solid and practical since I need something efficient that will get a tough life. My previous Moleskine extra large was ruined after one month of use, this one should last for years:

Hi,

 

I have been using one of the A5 size for two years now and it's great. Clip system allows for any number of options, I keep a Rhodia hard cover note book for daily notes as well as a Midori insert containing Post it Notes. It has stood up to all my travel and daily use for two years without an issue.

 

Thanks for the review.

My A6 Roterfaden has seen daily use for over four years now and has yet to disappoint me. Very flexible, only a bit bulky.

It is indeed a bit bulky but that clip system makes it worth it at work... Plus I have the most gorgeous class tool of all the place!

I watched your review and enjoyed it. It was cool to see how the clips work. I first saw these on Flickr, and checked out the website. They are kind of pricy, but I bet they last a long time. Maybe one day I'll get one to fit Field Notes notebooks. I got holders for them from an Etsy shop where the person makes holders and other items out of retired paraglider material. Those sell for half or more of Roterfaden but probably aren't nearly as sturdy.

 

I was building one with dance floor green for the cover. I might send off for fabric samples some day.

      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
