I've been trying the Paper Mind notebooks, and this one offers the buttery smooth feel of coated papers. My favorite remains the Tomoe River notebook which gives me the balance of features I like and that at 400 pgs is a bargain. The Paper Mind notebook that has the smoothest gliding pen nib experience is the tranext paper notebook. All three offer different fountain pen writing experiences and all three are excellent.
Love the b7 notebook! I hope for dot or grid formats in the future. Will def reorder.
I love this notebook as a replacement for Cosmo Air Light. One thing to be aware of if you’re using a fountain pen: the paper “upsizes” your nib, one grade. Fine is like a medium. Medium is like a broad and broad is almost too much, especially if the ink is really wet. Other than that, I love this notebook.
