Notepad Recommendations

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a notepad (not as expensive as Rhodia or Levenger) that is at least semi fountain pen friendly. * 11 1/2 x 8 1/2.

 

Any recommendations? Thanks.

Red N' Black comes in the A4 size - so just larger than US Letter size and is reasonably inexpensive. It is a notebook rather than a notepad however. (both wire bound and cloth bound)

something cheap? If you can find made in china paper, it's fp friendly. I got 9 cent packages of made in china looseleaf paper and it's fp friendly. Pretty sure there are made in china notebooks out there too. Just gotta find it.

I suggest a Roaring Springs stiff back writing pad. It is made in Pennsylvania in the USA, it is smooth and Foutain Pen Friendly.

I love my Rhodia Webnotebook. I really can't think of a thing I'd change about it. It's that good.

 

 

Oops - just saw you didn't want notebook recommendations... Sorry....

I use these notepads. Fountain pens / ink behave very well on them, not Rhodia / Clairefontaine well, but very well. These also come in 5" x 8" and maybe in legal size. The ones I've bought have "sugar cane" written on the top right of binding.

      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
