Anyone care to share their experience using FPs to write in "stone paper" notebooks? I see these sometimes in drugstores, stationery shops, and at Target. They tend to be rather heavy for their size and the paper in them feels very smooth but somewhat thin. Since they're not made of wood pulp like most paper, I'm curious about how they react with FP inks.

Don't sweat the small stuff....and it's all small stuff.

It's more a plastic than a paper. Odd stuff. Takes an FP ok but the one I tried did show through, too,

There were a couple of notebooks available in Australia at Oficeworks and they were rather ordinary. Didn't do well with FP at all.

Stonepaper is a coated plastic, nothing to do with paper.

 

I don´t think it´s made with FP use in mind .

Stonepaper is crushed limestone coated in plastic, pretty much the same stuff in plastic shopping bags. Last I used it, it didn't work too well, might as well be writing on coated paper.

      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
