Perfect! I've been looking for something just like this for ages!

 

 

Just to reach those awkward places at the back of the kitchen units...

How about this one?

Not as many pages; just 600 at 12.5 x 10.75, with 70 lb paper.

 

Search for very big sketchbook on YouTube for plenty of reviews. Looks like it will take fountain pen just fine. No line though but you could make an underlay.

With 70 lb. paper. I'm not sure an underlay would show through -- since that is in the range of what is known as "card stock": https://www.quill.com/content/index/paper-buying-guide/paper-weight/default.cshtml?gclsrc=aw.ds&ds_rl=1246464&ds_rl=1246461&cm_mmc=SEM_GGL_PPR_NONRLSA_DSA&mcode=SEM_GGL_PPR_NONRLSA_DSA&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIwsevmJ6q3wIVR0CGCh3tywmIEAAYASAAEgIAq_D_BwE

As for the 814 page one, can someone tell me what the page size is? And the price? I started out journaling in an 8-1/2" x 11 spiral notebook, but moved to a smaller size because it took too long to get through three pages (even the size I use these days takes an hour or so, because I tend to write small and do two lines of writing for every line on the page). But I am amused by the concept of getting through 2/3 of a year with one journal (I go through about three and a little into a fourth one with the Miquelrius 300 page jobs, although otherwise I mostly really like them for journaling.

Will they deliver to other countries?

I've ordered from Pen- House via their shop on Rakuten once before, with no problems. It was my first Rakuten experience so I had to paste some of the Rakuten terms & conditions into translate, but once through that hurdle it's fine.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
