Midori MD Paper A6 Notebook

I love these notebooks! I use them for journaling, and they're a good size to fit in my daily tote bag. The dot grid pattern is helpful. The paper feels lightweight, but I use fountain pens to write, and the ink doesn't bleed through like it does on some thicker, but lower-quality paper. I'm left-handed, and the ink I use dries quickly enough to avoid smudging. Since it lies almost flat, it's also easier for me to use both sides of the notebook. The only drawback for me is the cream color of the cover. I haven't found a cover to put over the journal, so all the marks and smudges from carrying it around every day show up clearly. I've tried decorating the cover with stickers and washi tape, but those tend to peel off.

This is a great lay flat notebook… Although it can handle fountain ink, I do not recommend use of a heavy flowing nib. I would also use quick drying inks. I did not experience bleed through, but severe smudging did occur. I would not go beyond a medium nib nor use a very slow drying ink. Now the positives are many. As previously mentioned it lays very flat, The design is nearly perfect it just is simply what it is supposed to be. Typically Japanese understated and always elegant, from the impossibly beautiful design to it’s understated ribbon place holder. The stickers are also a nice touch with wrap around the page duality. Hai!

One of my top 5 notebooks I use. I love them so much that I have 3 different ones. One dot, one square, and one blank. They are great for fountain pens, are the perfect size, and are great for different types of writing. You can toss them into your bag without worrying they will break, and lay pretty flat on the desk. I would recommend a midori to anyone looking for a notebook.

The paper quality in this Midori MD A6 notebook is outstanding. It’s smooth to write on and handles pens and fountain ink very well with minimal bleed-through or feathering. The A6 size is perfect for quick notes and carrying around daily, and the simple design keeps the focus on writing. A great choice if you care about paper feel and clean, minimal notebooks.

Almost my favorite paper for sheening and shading fountain pen inks. The dot color and shade might be my favorite; clear enough to provide line guidance but does not hold attention.

I am new to journaling and was pretty apprehensive about which journal to pick. I am the type of person to research and research, but at the end I decided to just pick this product and give it a shot. The minimalistic design is perfect and it includes stickers for you to put throughout the notebook or on the cover page! I had a problem with previous notebooks where it would not lay flat and I would have to use my whole arm to press the notebook down while I write, but no need for that here. Color is a creamish color (super cute). Dots are well placed. Great quality and durable. I believe they have a lined version, but the grid suited my aesthetic a little more, so I went with that. :) BEWARE! I use an ink pen for my journaling and you can see what you write from the previous page. No bleeding but the writing IS visible.

Very good paper with a medium sized nib on my fountain pen.

Excelente producto

I heard a great deal about japnese stationery and how their paper is superior than other. it's really true. it makes any ink that jave the slightest chance of shading or sheening , glow like no other paper. the writing experience is smooth. only negetive would be that being super ink resistance, sheening ink tends to smudge even after some days. best to carry a blotting paper and and use it as a book mark to prevent any smudging and smearing.

Good quality

The paper is smooth and handles pen ink well with no bleed-through. Dot grid is subtle but useful. Lays flat easily which was very important to me and makes it great for journalling or notes.

Excelente producto, maravilloso, excelso, sublime.

MD, jamás decepciona. Amo con todo mi ser este cuaderno y su funda. Volvería a comprar.
