B5 Or A4 Sized Dot Grid Notebooks

[j.a.j.]

Hello!

 

I am trying to find a new notebook mostly for sketching and taking meeting notes.

 

In meetings i often need to keep my laptop at the table while taking notes so i do not have that much real estate left for notebook.. At the moment i am using Leuchtturm A4 Slim which front cover can just and just be folded under. However just and just means that it does not provide even or flat surface. Have tried to use A5 but it is too small for me.

 

I keep A4+ Rhodia pad all the time at my desk but need something that can take more beating to take with me. Folios for pads are not my cup of tea.

 

I am looking for a notebook that woud

• have hard covers (for sketching while keeping the notebook at my lap)
• have dot grid
• be wirebound if sized A4 (for folding notebook under) or hardbound / wirebound if sized B5
• be reasonably priced when shipped to Europe

Have tried Whitelines but did not like the paper.

 

So far the best option seems to be Kyokuto F.O.B COOP but i have not found anyone selling it < 25 EUR / notebook shipped to the far corner of Europe i live in.

Forgot to add the question..

 

Would anybody know any notebooks matching those criteria or have information of sources that ship Kyokuto to Europe with lower price?
