In re what Matthew Bodycombe said - that's rather strange. I know where he's coming from re having specific paper needs due to liking fountain pens, but I haven't had this problem with moleskine paper - in fact it's the only kind of paper I'm consistently sure will be pleasing to use (with other papers, it's not that fountain pens won't work at all; it's more that you don't get the same sensual enjoyment out of it than you get using proper paper). It helps that it is cream-colored, rather than blinding white - much easier on the eyes and looks much neater than harsh, too-white copier-style paper, which had become the standard for most notebooks and diaries alike until moleskines hit the market.I mean, it is still to be found in the majority although about the time the moleskine arrived (because of it?) the whole journalling craze took a new boost, and you finally got some other manufacturers introducing cream, soft paper - paperblanks for instance, the ciak brand he mentions also does that I believe (not sure tho')In fact, it's the only kind of paper I can easily recommend to someone needing to use it with a fountain pen - obviously in my time I've come across lots of other brands and styles, but they're the sort of thing I can only get at one store, or I have to order it specially or something like that. Until I hit on moleskines, which are available pretty widely and consistently over the entire western world, there was no simple answer a longer-standing pen geek like me could give newbies when they asked me where to get some paper that was more pleasing to use with their new pen ;-) Now I can just tell them to get a moleskine, and there's enough of a range to get them started whatever their needs (a notable exception being loose leaf sheets for correspondence or to use in a binder). I don't think it's the best (I'd vote for Kokuyo Campus in that category), but it's really bluidy good, and most of all, unlike Kokuyo, you don't have to have like relatives in Japan or something to get your hands on it!Tbh I think moleskines aren't too good to use with ballpoints or gels or rollerballs, unless you got a really light touch to your writing. The paper's pretty skinny (deliberately, to keep the thing lightweight), so if you press down hard, as you're much more likely to do with a ballpoint etc than with a fountain pen, you might be marking the next two pages with today's entry :-) (and hey, it's fine if it's a profound quote on the meaning of life, but what if it's something lame like 'BUY MILK!!! DO NOT FORGET THIS TIME!!' - sure I'm not the only one who has these!)The only way I can imagine Matthew is having trouble with a moleskine and an FP is if the pen(s) he tried it with is really 'juicy' - ie, it dumps great big wads of ink on the paper as it writes (either through design, especially with broader nibs, or because it's just wonky :-)). Similarly, the ink being used could be pretty heavy and viscous, too. I've used the moleskine with up to a size medium nib with no hassle whatsoever - and that was a european-style medium, which would be a Broad for asian/japanese pens where the nibs tend to be finer and crisper. I have also used it with Montblanc ink, which I have noticed is heavier, with more pigment than other inks, such as J Herbin if you wanna go higher end, or your basic standard pelikan in schoolroom blue ;-). Again, that wasn't a problem.All in all, it might be worth playing around with the possibilities, because the experience outlined in Matthew's reveiw isn't very common - most FP users I know get along pretty well with moleskine paper, even if it's not their favorite (we're also fussier than the average ballpoint or gel pen user, bear in mind, because FP writing comes closer to artistic-type uses than handwriting with any other kind of tool, so things like how nice and smooth the writing feels play a part in paper selection in ways that don't even register when using ballpoints or gels). So Matthew I think you should have a go, try a few things differently and you might get a nice surprise - there's hardly anything to lose now since you already have the diary, might as well try and make the most of it!Oh, and everyone, if you're worried about not liking it, try the moleskine cahiers first - cheaper and smaller than the rest, so less of a commitment if you find you really don't get along! And you can split the pack with a friend too; either someone who wants to try it out just like you or someone who already likes the stuff and knows they'll find a spot for another cahier or two somewhere :-)Good luck!

I was looking for a journal/notebook and arrived at a shortlist of two: this one and the Ciak large black notebook, so bought one of each. This is a comparative review of the two, which I hope you will find useful.The notebooks are very similar, both black, both the same height, but with the Ciak being about 15mm wider. They have about the same number of pages, but the paper in the Ciak is thicker and heavier, so the book is thicker, and weighs in at 481g compared to the Moleskine's 346g (on my kitchen scales). I have written in both of them with a fountain pen (fine nib) and found that, even with the thinner paper of the Moleskine, the writing surface is good and the ink does not bleed through to the other side of the paper.Both notebooks are lined, the lines being of a similar colour and thickness. However, the lines in the Moleskine extend to the edge of the paper so that they are visible down the edge of the book when it is shut, whereas the lines in the Ciak do not. The space between the lines is virtually identical, with the Moleskine squeezing in 31 lines per page to the Ciak's 30. The Moleskine has a stiff cover, whereas the Ciak's is soft and felxible. The Moleskine has its famous pocket at the back, which the Ciak does not. The Moleskine has a vertical elastic closure, whereas the Ciak has a horizontal one. Both have sturdy bindings, but I found the Moleskine easier to use because it opens wider and stays flat under my hand as I write. The Ciak resists being opened to the full 180 degrees, so is more of a struggle to use. Last but not least, on current prices the Moleskine is a fair bit cheaper, worth considering if you're going to get through a lot of them.Which is best? Depends on what you want. If you want something that is beautiful and sensuous, then the Ciak wins. The more practical among us would probably prefer the Moleskine. I've now got two notebooks with only a page used in each, so it will be a while before I need to buy another. I may change my mind in the meantime, but for now I think it will be Moleskine for me. So you may also wish to consider the Moleskine's pedigree as the notebook of choice of van Gogh, Hemingway, Picasso, Chatwin and Williams.

This notebook feels great and looks good too. The cover on mine is a wonderful forest-green. The paper inside is cream, nice and smooth, and thick enough to feel good quality. The little ribbon is great for keeping track of the page you've reached.The lines on the paper are quite small, so if you have large handwriting this may be an issue for you. I find the size encourages me to write more neatly, though.If you are European, please note that this book is slightly smaller than A4 size, therefore you won't be able to stick printed sheets etc. in to it as easily.The paper accepts ink very well, and a fountain-pen writes beautifully on it. If you write with a fountain-pen, be sure to exercise some caution,though, as the paper accepts the ink a little too readily, in my opinion. If you have a particularly free-flowing pen or wet kind of ink, you may experience some bleeding through to the other side of the page, and even slight feathering. If you only write on one side of the page, this will not bother you - and even if you do write on both sides, the text you've written is still legible - it just won't look as pretty.As a rough guide, with a Parker 45 or Mont Blanc Starwalker, both with a medium nib and fitted with ink converters (the Graf von Faber Castell converter fits the Starwalker perfectly):- Parker Quink exhibits no feathering and minimal bleed-through- Noodler's regular bulletproof black exhibits no feathering or bleed-through whatsoever- Diamine Woodland Green exhibits moderate feathering and bleed-through- Beaufort blue-black displays moderate feathering and significant bleed-throughWith the smoothness and thickness of the paper, all fountain-pen inks feel wonderful to write with in this book. The Diamine and Beaufort in particular lubricate the nib excellently on these pages - it's just a pity that the end result is less than perfect. I'd say that if you only use 1 side of the page, your handwriting will really look beautiful with the combination of this paper and a wetter ink such as the Diamine or Beaufort, but if you want to use both sides, stick with a less-flowing ink, such as Noodler's X-Feather black (which is also bulletproof).

I am an English Language student and I feel naked without a good journal or writing pad to my side. Previously I have found Pukka Pad writing pads and journals to be quite good.Moleskine appear to be very well praised for their journals- I am happy with this product.Arrived in two days.The Moleskine I received is not what appears in the product picture which looks as if it has some light coloured pattern, but rather it is plain black with a subtly leather look and feel. I prefer blank pages, and especially creamy coloured blank pages.I am using either a ball point Parker pen or a Uniball Jetstream 0.7. The paper is smooth to write on (considering you also have a good pen,I've heard that Moleskine paper may not be as friendly with a fountain pen. Look it up). There is 'ghosting', where the writing can be seen on the next page. I have no qualms with this but some people may do, so it's worth mentioning.In the back of the notebook is a pocket to keep stray sheets of paper or whatnot. Handy, I use these often with other notebooks.Over all, good size and it's quite comfortable to write in, it lays rather flat and does not fight back when you lay it flat to write. I am very particular with my journals as I often intend to keep them for a long time (a year or so) and they often contain important ideas and plans.I am not intending to join the Moleskine fan club that I see on the net where people will swear and live by the name as if it provides them oxygen- I am simply only interested in a functional product. This is a nicely made notebook and I am happy to pay the price I paid as it does not feel cheap at all.Edit: Since writing this review I have began to use a Uni Pin fine line 0.5 pen. It is a good compliment to the Moleskine paper, smooth action that glides, doesn't blotch or bleed, nor show through the page anymore than a regular ballpoint.Edit 6/2/16: The book mark ribbon is starting to fray quite a bit. My Pukka pad's bookmark didn't after a yer of use.

When I first bought a Moleskine notebook I was more than a little hesitant due to the price, which was at least twice as much as I would normally spend on a notebook. However, as soon as I started using it I fell well and truly in love and have been recommending them to friends ever since.These notebooks are made from quality materials and the paper is a joy to write on. I always write with liquid ink pens, including dipped nib pens on occasion and, even though the paper is fairly thin, I have never had the ink seep through. The hardcover opens fully and stays open easily without cracking or bending, allowing for easy writing without obstuction and without damaging the book.The pocket of my notebook is always in constant use, I'm not sure how I ever survived without it. The lines in the ruled notebooks are the perfect size for my writing, small but not too tiny, and they go all the way from one side of the paper to the other without annoying margins to try and control where you write.I now have a growing collection of various Moleskine notebooks but my original is still in frequent use and, despite being carried around in my bag almost daily for just over a year, it still looks in almost as perfect condition as the day I bought it, with only the tiniest bit of cracking at the top of the spine that has appeared in the last month or so. The rest of my (scarily large) collection of beautiful notebooks is now a backup to my trusty Moleskines. I will be using these books for many many years to come.I have to admit that the price still makes me wince a little, but now I look at it as an investment and a treat to myself. Some people buy DVDs, I buy notebooks, it's all a matter of perspective, and in my view this is worth the money by far.

I keep journals at work where I take meetings notes, jot down ideas and sketches and other things I need to remember. I like to keep them in rather sturdy books that I keep on my bookshelf for future reference. This is very practical. I often find myself going back to check discussions and ideas from years back when this is needed -- which is surprisingly often. I realize this sounds a bit backwards in these days of electronic tablets, but it is not at all a matter of being conservative. I often mix sketches and text in my notes, and this is extremely difficult to do quickly on a tablet. Writing "manually" also keeps my handwriting from degrading to that of a third grader (increasingly common these days).And very few people are likely to steal a notebook from a meeting room while you are out to fetch a cup of coffee, whereas a computer...When I started using this Moleskine variety I immediately found several benefits. First, the book is bound in a way that makes it possible to open it flat on the table without it closing itself -- very practical when you need to use the notes as a support for writing something up on the computer later. Other books tend to break in the back when you have done this a couple of times. The Moleskine is also lightweight compared to my previous hardbound notebooks, which makes it easier to carry around in a backpack. It has a practical bookmarker string and a pocket in the back for keeping handy things like paper clips and business cards. Finally, while realizing it may not be the major reason to buy one, I must say the paper quality is very good and the leather cover is nice to touch, and this adds to the wonderful experience of using these notebooks. I recommend you to indulge in one. I am not going back.

I originally bought the large ruled notebook, but found that the line spaces were a little on the narrow side for me. Having now got hold of the plain version, it's obvious that this is the one I should have bought in the first place; I much prefer a blank space rather than blank lines. But each to their own.Having used mine for a few weeks, I can find no fault with the classic Moleskine design or the quality of the workmanship. I like the off-white paper which is neither too thin or too thick. The overall size of this notebook - rather than the pocket version - is perfect, neither too large or too small. And there are enough pages to store my genius ideas or inane ramblings for a long time,if not years. If you tend to jot things down on scraps of paper, as I do, you can either stuff them in the expandable pocket at the back or between the pages - and the elastic keeper will prevent anything falling out. In short, it's a joy to own and use. I've seen other notebooks that might be 'finer' (and more expensive) but this is a supremely practical notebook designed for heavy, every day use by the thinkers of the species. And it's unlikely to fall apart after a couple of months as cheaper notebooks do. I wouldn't be without mine. Long live Moleskine.Note: The Amazon description states that this notebook, and others in the Moleskine range, are leather bound. Well, mine isn't. It's 'merely' hardback. But don't let that put you off. Personally, it makes no difference to me.

I have had a paperblank notebook and I thought I would try a different brand to see what is was like.I have two paperblanks, one small which I use a lot and carry around with me. The other bigger which I leave at home. The small one has got a bit battered, and the cover has come off from the notebook itself (this is wear and tear). The big one is looking still neat at home on the bookshelf.Now lets talk about size and paper quality-The same size notebook from Moleskine and Paperblanks are different. The depth of the moleskine is much less than that of a paperblank, PLUS it has more pages. I guess this additional thickness comes from the cover. The Moleskin hard cover looks pretty good and sturdy,only time will tell. The quality and thickness of the paper in both appears to be the same. Neither like my fountain pen very much, even though I have a fine nib. The ink shows through on the following page. On the Paperblank, the ink even fades - not sure if it is the fault of the ink though. I have yet to test this on the Moleskine.Both have inside envelope sleeves for storage of things.Moleskine looks very smart / professional, while the Paperblanks have great designs - if size is not too important, then it is a matter of choice of looks as the paper is pretty much the same, but for those who need even the extra couple of mm that the Moleskine can free up in your pocket / small bag then the choice is clear. The weight is about the same.

There's something deliciously decadent about shelling out this much cash for a simple notebook. In truth, unless your livelihood depends on being able to jot down notes on high quality paper, you can easily get away with a much cheaper alternative to the Moleskine brand. Heck. I even bought a Moleskine clone from Asda not so long ago. It was much the same size, had the same hard cover, the same expandable back pocket*, the same elastic band and ribbon page-marker. Even the paper had that rich creamy yellow colour and seemed to be just as "all that" as Moleskine's acid resistant product. And all for less than a couple of quid. Makes buying a real Moleskine a bit silly doesn't it? But then, Asda...Moleskine... Asda... Moleskine. Hmmm. Doesn't quite work does it?At least with Moleskine you get a wee sticker and a leaflet with an enjoyably pretentious blurb to help you self-justify your ridiculous indulgence."The Moleskine notebook is a battery that stores ideas and feelings, releasing its energy over time." Ah! Now I understand!This little chap fits happily into your breast pocket, just peeking out far enough to wink tantalisingly at people saying, "buy me!"Damn. Now I'm beginning to sound like a Moleskine copywriter.* What am I supposed to use that for?! My Orient Express ticket stub? My receipt from dinner at Megu's in Manhattan? Bill Clinton's business card? I normally just pop those into my elephant skin wallet.

So many Moleskines, so many reviews... Why do people get so excited about a notebook? The prices here on Amazon are unbeatable and so that's always a good starting point but you may still think they're expensive despite that. This is a premium product though, it looks and feels expensive. Colleagues glance covetously at it and surely that's enough reason to have one?This squared variety is my second Moleskine (the first was the lined variety) but after living for just a month with this beauty, I already know my third will also be a squared one. There are more 'lines' per page than the, um, lined one and I like the ease with which you can turn the book 90 degrees and the format makes it comfortable to write in a straight line!(By the way - it's a hardback even though some of the reviews say otherwise).I use this to take notes at meetings, to sketch visual interpretations when trying to explain my thinking to colleagues, to draw mind maps and also to capture my thoughts whilst travelling on the train. I carry it around everywhere with me at work and it's part of my 'brand'. I use it every day of the working week and fully expect it to last a whole year, as my last one did (Sept 2010 to Sep 2011).If you haven't had a relationship with a Moleskine before, please jump in and try it. You'll never go back to any other type of notebook.

Moleskine are the iPhone of notebooks - some people love them with a passion, others can't believe that something so straightforward is so expensive.They're both right, really. They certainly aren't cheap - you can scour bookshops, Amazon and Ebay and struggle to find a reasonably-priced one - and you could find a very similar alternative (from a supermarket among many other sources) for a third of the price.On the other hand, there is something very likeable about them. They are pretty robust and well made; the pages are stitched into the spine so that the book falls open easily; the paper is good quality and made to last; there is both a book mark and an elastic snap-band to close the book,and inside the back cover is a pocket to hold loose bits of paper and other momentos.In a similar way to the iPhone, fans of Moleskine (I'm one) tend to like something that is very hard to explain to a non-believer - the simple aesthetic pleasure of using it. And if you are someone who snorts with disbelief at that, you need to look elsewhere. Suffice to say that like an iPhone, the admittedly basic design has been ripped off by a hundred other manufacturers, which proves its quality. So, yes, I'm a fan - they aren't cheap and I wish they could knock a couple of quid off the price, but if they don't, I'll still stick with them.

The Moleskine plain notebooks have great quality paper. I use a fountain pen and I find the paper really smooth to write on - I personally haven't experienced the feathering effect you sometimes get with poor quality paper, where the ink spreads out uncontrollably, and I find the ink dries quickly. Because the paper is so thin I can see my writing on the other side, but I can still use the other side and read both sides of what I've written clearly. I like the plain pages as I can use it to do quick sketches and diagrams, or turn it on its side and use it in landscape. The small document pouch in the back cover is useful and the elastic closure means I can slot in more lose papers and feelcomfortable they won't fall straight out again.I use this notebook at work and buy a new one every couple of months. There are now many imitators (even with the elastic closure and document wallet in the cover) and I have tried a few to see if I can save a few quid, but the quality of paper in the Moleskine has always brought me back again. However, I think if you use a biro, then the cheaper options may well suit just as well, particularly when considering the difference in cost.

The notebook is great. Well made, with hard cover in some imitation of something remembering somehow leather. I really like the paper, a bit cream-coloured, which gives a very good look; smooth surface and very good consistence. The rules are maybe a bit too close to write without leaving a blank line; I would prefer the color to be more discrete (not as dark as it is), but ok. The notebook opens completely, leaving uniform surface, which makes possible and comfortable to write close to the center. 240 pages is a good number.What I don't generally like of the moleskines is the excessive flattering tone of the brand. "Moleskine is personality, moleskine is art and intelect,moleskine will make you just as Picasso , Van Gogh and company". I really hate this of selling greatness as if the notebook and not you is the inspired thing, just to fulfill the arrogance of someone. I bought this for the quality, and although it is a bit expensive, I really think it is probably the best notebook I have had. It is nice that these people care about the format and all that.Manufactured in China (oooooh... another product of offshoring). With FSC certificate.

The usual high quality you would expect from Moleskine. As the pages are quite thin (I like this as it packs more pages into a smaller package), your average Biro will be preferable over a fountain pen, or even a Moleskine pen which I find ghosts slightly onto the next page. The pages are 'natural' rather than white, and are narrow ruled, making this a very comfortable notebook to write in. There is a strong elastic closure around the notebook and a ribbon inside to maintain the page. A cardboard wallet on the back inside cover is ideal for keeping loose sheets. The initial cover page features a section for you to write your contact details and propose a reward in case the notebook is lost.The initial lined page is attached to the cover page along its inside edge and will not sit flat - I have therefore ignored this and started on the following page.My Moleskine spends most of its life in my handbag and the cover has unfortunately been scratched by my keys (see photograph). This is by no means the fault of Moleskine and simply something to be aware of should you wish to maintain a pristine notebook in a revoltingly disorganised handbag.

carry one 24/7 fifty two weeks of the year works well in the pocket, wears well though on a couple of occasions i've had to duck tape the spine as the book aged in the pocket (transparent tape of course). Paper is fine unless you wish to draw after inked script on the previous page, but i find no problem missing the odd page. Writing script on both sides in ink i find both easily decipherable but i write in a ink drawing pen0.3mm. I find the compromise to be about just perfect for any heavier paper and you have either a book with too few pages or a much heavier/awkward tome. As with all such journals after a while the elastic can get a little slack. The pocket in the rear is magic and pieces of paper,cards etc can be slipped in there or between the pages held in place by the elastic. It lies easily in the pocket and as an information storage /retrieval device second to none good tool and its linear too collects your life for sorting latergood compromise only possible improvement would be the rounding of the corners on the spine to equal the outside corners
