MD Note Horizontal Ruled line

This is a joy to use with fountain pens, with no feathering or bleed through. I've been using it for several weeks now and it is now one of my favourite papers to use. The paper has a very, very slight texture which I really enjoy and a slightly off white colour as you can see on line. The minimalist aesthetic works really well too. Highly recommended

I absolutely love these Midori MD Note Horizontal Ruled notebooks. The layout is simple but incredibly effective, the pages are divided into two sections by a slightly thicker, darker line halfway down, which makes them ideal for structured journaling. I use mine daily as a work journal, typically using half a page per day. I break things into three parts: Facts – what I’ve done that day Feelings – how I’m feeling Focus – the personal skills I’m working on The paper quality is excellent. I write with a Gravitas Copper Fountain Pen using Waterman Serenity Blue Ink, and the Midori paper handles it beautifully. There’s very little feathering, no bleed-through to the other side, and overall a really satisfying writing experience. I also keep a sheet of Buvard blotting paper between pages to catch any excess ink, though honestly the paper performs well even without it. One thing I particularly like (which might not be for everyone) is the greaseproof-style paper cover. I keep it on, and over time it develops a nice, slightly worn character that adds to the notebook’s charm. Overall, these notebooks are ideal if you want something minimal, high-quality, and well-suited to a consistent journaling habit. Highly recommended.

Amazing quality at a fairly cheap price. I journal everyday. My collection of these are dated and look great together. My hot tip: Apply boot polish to the external cover to keep it from getting dirty. (thats my one negative, the cover gets very dirty!) I also sometimes paint it before polishing to make it a bit personal :)

Awesome paper, very fountain pen friendly, cheaper than Tomoe River and even better more like the older Tomoe paper. Highly recommend stocking up on these notebooks.

Great notebook with nice and smooth pages with minimal ghosting and no bleeding whatsoever. However parts of some pages are too waxy that certain fountain pen nibs will struggle to start. The same waxiness also means that ink will smudge long after writing.

Great quality and most importantly fountain pen ink doesn't bleed through. Will buy again. New Midori fan here.

It’s paper! Works great with fountain pens. I like it a lot and will buy more

My love of the Japanese and the beautiful simplicity of products are all here in a simple notebook.

Le papier est doux et très agréable pour écrire, aussi au stylo à plume!

Soy super fan de este papel. La tinta de pluma fuente corre perfecto. He probado Sketchink Rohrer&klingner (emma y lilly), Diamine Ancient Copper y Noodler's Ink negra.

何よりもペンの滑りがよく、書きやすい。紙が柔らかい。開きがよい。そして華美でなく軽い！！安くはないかこの品質なら高くもない！たいへん気に入っています。仕事のノートでずっと愛用中。アマゾンで頼んだら翌日に着いてひっくりしました！

Love it

Das Notizbuch und ihr Papier motivieren einen einfach zum Schreiben und Umgang mit dem Buch. Das Buch kommt mit Wachspapier umschlagen, wobei es alternativ auch richtige Cover zu kaufen gibt. Das Papier ist cremefarbend, was mir sehr gefällt, allerdings verfälscht es durch die Farbe das Erscheinungsbild der Tinte, also nicht für jeden was. Ich benutze es als Tagebuch, und meine Füllfederhalter gleiten über das Papier. Das Papier ist sehr glatt, was es gegen Öle von der Hand sehr anfällig macht und es sein kann das dort wo die Hand über das Papier ging der Füller "rutscht". Für Tinte allerdings dennoch ein wunderschönes Papier, Sheening und Shading sind super sichtbar, und die Tinte blutet nicht aus bzw. ist auf der Rückseite auch nicht sichtbar. Mit Bleistift oder Gel/Kugelschreiber auch super.
