Hi, I was wondering if anyone has tried the Word. notebook? I found a mention on the-gadgeteer.com, and took a look. Similar to Field Notes, but with different covers and paper. Designed and made in the USA.

 

The pages are set up for a unique planning system. Take a look.

 

I contacted the company to ask about the FP friendliness of the paper, and they responded immediately saying "Not yet, but coming soon!"

 

So, worth keeping an eye on.

I just ordered a few packs today. Swedish Camo, Stealth Camo, and Natural. I'm hoping it will work OK with fountain pens since they use 60# paper...

I started using some today: the Black Bandana LE with a TWSBI Classic (F) and Waterman Serenity Blue ink.

 

Cover is cardboard which, given its travelled from the US to Australia, has held up pretty well.

 

I like the idea behind the planning system, which is outlined on the inside front cover. It also has a list of common abbreviations of words etc. on the inside back cover to ensure better notetaking etc.

 

Paper quality is not too bad, no real bleedthrough but some feathering. Of course Waterman SB is a well-behaved ink and haven't yet tried it with other pens, inks etc.

 

Would post photos but not easy at work :)

I am very curious as to what you would use this 3.5 x 5.5 notebook for. Please tell us what you use such a small notebook, notepad for. I may be able to find something to use this size for.

      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
