I love these notebooks, finally something that doesn’t bleed as I use my fountain pens exclusively in various colors daily. Very well made, worth every penny.

These are super high quality notebooks. I use a variety of pens and the paper holds us to most of them without bleed-through. The paper feels luxuriously smooth, and they re just all around good quality (they better be for the price).
