This notebook is designed for ultimate comfort whilst writing, and it's threaded binding allows it to open flat on the desk. The ink presents as a very rich blue that leans a little more to the teal side of the blue spectrum. To add booklets to the Taschenbegleiter, simply lift the top and bottom clips, slide in the booklet, and close the clips. While the brass fountain pen of Traveler’s Company is small and robust, this MD Fountain Pen is more stayed and restrained (and obviously not as hardy as brass).

And since some months are so busy that one sheet isn’t enough, MD Diary Sticker Free comes with 16 blank sheets.

The MD Pencil uses the same colors as MD PAPER for its standard honeycomb-shaped body that is easy to hold with the thumb, index finger and middle finger. MD Notebook Journal Codex 1 Day 1 Page allows you to chronicle each day of your year—the people you met, the places you went and what was on your mind. Some are printed with frequently used items such as “IDEA” or “DIARY”, while others are left blank so that you can add your own headings. In general Designphil’s philosophy seems to be around using traditional techniques and modern techniques of manufacture. This diary with its simple, easy-to-use format, and plain memo pages, is ideal for jotting down your ideas and inspirations while organising your everyday life.

MD Notebook Journal Codex A5 1D/1P Blank is a 1 Day 1 Page notebook, counting 368 pages — enough for a page a day for a whole year. Lots of earthy, autumnal and natural colours from tans, browns, oranges, warm greens, and dusty blues.

As mentioned the paper is a moderately textured paper (even though Midori describes it as “rough-textured” - I think this is wrong as there are much more highly textures papers out there).

Since then, they have continued to develop a range of design-focused products that will enrich and add colour to people’s daily lives.Hopefully this comparison between new and old 52gsm Ivory (off white) and Cream Tomoe River Paper will be helpful. Midori has conducted many tests using a variety of writing instruments to inspect the paper quality, including observing whether the ink feathers or bleeds, how it dries, how well the pen tips glide across the surface, how the paper feels to the touch, and so on.

Originally released to celebrate the MD Notebook’s 10th anniversary, the Frame and Dot Grid notebooks were so popular that they were added to the permanent lineup. The high-quality Midori Diary (MD) paper inside was developed in 1960 and has been continuously improved on ever since. By comparison, I feel like Midori products are suited for a nice simple desk (indeed they make desktop only calendars). The Grid Block Journal is the newest addition with pages divided into quadrants so you can easily create graphs or organize your notes. Some of the notebooks expose the super, a cloth-like material that protects the threads on the outside.This MD notebook is created using traditional thread-stitched book-binding methods, with 16 pages of paper folded into a bundle and stitched down the spine for durability and a perfect lay-flat design opening to 180 degrees. These are affordable products from an established Japanese brand that have a certain minimalist-like aesthetic about them. Letters are something you send to other people, and your words aren’t the only message – everything from the size and shape of your handwriting to the pressure of your pen tells people something about who you are.
