The "LEUCHTTURM1917 346681 Notebook Pocket (A6), 185 numbered pages, ruled, purple" is available in a few rulings and many cover colours. There are also options with larger page sizes.It is not made immediately clear which paper weight is used for its pages which include a personal and Contents pages sheets to the front; as the paper feels similar in thickness to photocopier paper, it is possibly 70 or 80 gsm and bright white. The main pages are numbered and can be used for notes, as a journal or anything else. A paper folder for receipts or anything else fitted within the back cover. The covers are hard and provide adequate support for writing in the hand if necessary but the book does not open fully flat which can be a potential issue,especially when quite new.If used for a journal, it could cover in excess of six months' worth of daily activities but it can be used for much more. In addition to two matching ribbon page markers, it features an elasticated closure which have been known to detach from similar notepads after repeated use.Bought as a possible replacement for a near-identical product from another European brand although with far fewer pages than this and less fountain pen friendly as the paper permits feathering with some inks and nibs. Leuchtturm's paper is regarded as the best available from any European manufacturer in relation to fountain pen use. It is superbly smooth and is expected to work well with all common nib grades from Extra-Fine upwards; so far, only a couple of Medium nibs were used. It could also be used with other writing implements. If desired, a card-backed pen loop can be added for a slim-line pen of a suitable size.A convenient and compact size notepad that may fit in some pockets but will be just at home in a handbag, messenger or laptop bag or anything larger.

I bought these A6 notebooks particularly for the quality of the paper, which was deemed to be sufficient for fountain-pen use. Now that I have abandoned ballpoints, this seemed a relatively critical matter, and I was tired of the degree of bleed when using Moleskines.In fact, the paper is not quite as resilient to fountain-pen ink as I had expected. My Montblanc feathers quite a bit, as does my Onoto - both pens tend to lay ink down quite generously. Thankfully I have a extra-fine nibbed TWSBI for general use, and this is a perfect combination. The writing does show through very slightly, but overall it's an acceptable compromise.The Leuchtturm notebooks are, I suspect, a little overpriced,but I picked my copies up when they were offered with a significant reduction. They are beautifully made. Sizewise, they fit neatly in jacket pockets, but I would be loth to risk them in my trousers. The hard cover is resilient in use, and provides a stable base on which to write. They open nicely, although (and I suspect this is more to do with sizing issues than anything else), you have to keep continual pressure on them to be able to write evenly across the page.I particularly like the page-numbering and contents pages at the front, making it much easier to retain one's notes for reference purposes, although there are insufficient contents pages. The inclusion of archival labels is a nice touch. Overall, I would say that this is one of the most practical notebook solutions that I have encountered - a little more substance to the paper, and I'd be a really happy bunny!

I purchased this on the advice of a friend after having a disappointing experience with a moleskine diary and fountain pen ink.I am using this as a memoirs diary and am not limited to a page that a planner type diary gives, at the top of each page is a dedicated place to write the date, with a contents page at the front of the notebook.The pages are fine for use with 'proper' ink and I write with Havana brown waterman ink.There are label stickers to use on the front and back as well as the spine when archiving the notebook.Perforated pages at the rear of the book if you need to write an impromptu list to give someone,as well as a pocket at the rear to put in address book or anything of note.Went for the lime green as a bit of a difference and will be purchasing another when this is full.Still have a moleskine planner diary, but may change that to a Leuchtturm next year.Would recommend to friends, although I know the five year five line Leuchtturm is reputed to have poor paper for fountain pen ink.

Lovely! After my moleskin fell off my table and split in two, I thought that I'd try a Leuchtturm. They are really well organised, with three pages of index, numbered pages so you can refer to the topics that you've covered, light grey grid that doesn't overshadow your work (the moleskine ones can be a bit too dark). An elastic to keep it together, brighter colours than the moleskine, and this travels in my bag, gets jounced, and still survives to see the day. It takes fountain pen ink (I've tried medium and fine nibs by Lamy and the quality is good - but Lamy's nibs write dry, not as wet as the other nibs out there, so YMMV). The book lays relatively flat, so I can get everything in there.If I were to do it all again, I'd have gone for the Leuchtturm1917 over the moleskin to keep my portable spanish notes. I'm rather pleased with it.

I've been getting into "bullet journaling" recently and have tried out the A5 version of this book, which is great but a tad too big to carry around. The A6 size is perfect for me as it fits into my handbag easily without weighing it down or being bulky. It's a little smaller than true A6 which is a bit annoying, not really sure why they couldn't measure it properly, but it's really nice to use and very good quality overall. It has the same index pages and page numbering that the larger versions do, and the hard back makes it easy to write in (unlike the traveller's notebook style I tried before). The paper is lovely and smooth too, and I use it with the Sharpie pens which are perfect for it and don't cause bleed through.You can also buy a matching Leuchtturm pen holder to stick into the back which is really convenient.

Do I love these notebooks? I should bally well say so! These are my go to notebooks - see my little family of yellow ones? Anyway - I am on leuchtturm number 6 now - I bought my first one to do bullet journaling - the love for the books has lasted, the journaling has not. I have various colours but am hoping the yellow will be cheering this year... I use them for work and at home - I prefer the grid paper but also have dotted... they are a decent, well made ‘thick’ notebook - when you buy them you might balk a little at the price but these babies are built to last and so, yes, good value for money. I think ‘sheer’ means if your writing shows through - I have used fountain pen and biro and both are fine...not sure about a sharpie though...

As a frequent user of small notebooks I would give Leuchtturm my vote ahead of Moleskin, Cartesio and the rest. The thread-bound binding means it will withstand quite rugged use, and most importantly, the book always open flat for ease of writing. Although I mostly use ball pens for writing in this book, I have tried using a fountain pen and the paper held the ink well without any bleed-through on the reverse page.Above all I like the extras Leuchtturm have in their notebooks: such as page numbering and a handy table of contents so that you can find all those random notes and jottings.Moleskin might have the brand recognition and marketing power but I for one have been converted toLeuchtturm.

Brilliant quality notebook and the only ones I'll be using from now on.Perfect for bullet journals with the numbered pages and index.Some people complain of ink bleeding through, however I have yet to find a pen that will actually bleed, apart from Sharpie markers which destroy all paper.As the paper is thin there is tendency for ink to shadow on previous pages. Depending on the type of pen you use, will depend on how noticeable this is. I personally find that Uni Pin fine liners work really well with little ghosting on both the Leuchtturm and Moleskine.

Great notebook with really nice features (contents page, numbered pages, etc.). Paper itself is pretty nice (perhaps not QUITE the standard of Rhodia/Clairfontaine, but very nice & smooth to write on), book opens flat, grid is subtle & not too obtrusive & very well space IMHO, & the pages are laid out so most of the actual page can be used to make notes (or whatever u use it for) - there isn't loads of wasted space which is good. Good notebooks & I got this one at a great price from the seller who was very prompt & friendly.

I love this little book. I've also use Leuchtterm1917 A5 notebooks for meetings and project notes, etc, but this little beauty is perfect for snippets of information, quotes, jottings and doodles. We recently went on a trip to Berlin and it was fantastic for making notes before we went of sights to see, where to get bus tickets and passes, etc. Size-wise it's perfect: slightly larger than my iPhone6, and fits into my back pocket. It's great quality, and I'll certainly buy another.

I bought this as a replacement for my old German vocabulary book that had become full and I have to say, it's much better than I expected. The paper (I chose grid for easier table drawing) holds ink really well without it showing on the other side and the numbered and contents pages are a very good idea. The choice of colours was what initially caught my attention though and I'm so happy with this one I'm looking at the a5 Leuchtturm notebooks as well

I use this notebook at work at the hospital to store information regarding processes and general notes. It is sturdy and with two page markers, numbered pages and contents page makes it excellent for organising notes.I've had it for over a year now and is still in excellent health. The pages are decent and do not show ink on the other side. I mainly use it with a pencil or a biro so cannot comment on how it would fare with ink.

Lovely little notebook however I didn't check the dimensions and whilst it is A6 in height it isn't in width, it's way too narrow - I just went by the title description so my fault for not checking before ordering. That said it is a lovely note book and it will get used, it's just not what I thought it was. As always with Leuchtturm 1917 notebooks it is very well made and has good paper.

I got this to try out bullet journalling, and though I didn't get very far with it, I still use it regularly for lists and meal plans.It is beautiful, slightly bigger than my smart phone, fits in the handbag, is nice to write and draw on with its dot pattern, and the leather feels gorgeous.I got a pen holder in the same colour with it, highly recommended.

The paper is very good indeed. It is fountain pen friendly with no observable feathering and little print through.Good paper.It is well bound with a good number of signatures so it lays fairly flat.Leuchtturm paper has a little more nib feedback than some other papers in this quality range. It is nice to write on.
