Hamelin 8"x10" 1-Subject College-Ruled Spiral Notebook in ICE White

christine Edgeworth: I liked the smaller size as I use this for Devotions and prayers from U-Tube. It is not bulky and it is sturdy not like the regular size notebooks that are cheaply made and bendable. Thank you. Chris

Liz: I've bought so many notebooks and wasn't happy with the paper quality. Took a chance on this one and the paper quality is great. It's smooth and thick so I can use various pens and they won't bleed on the other side of the paper. You can also take a picture of the page to view online but I haven't done that yet so can't say whether it's good or not but for the paper quality alone - and the thick front and back cover, I love it and bought 4 more.

FrequentAmazonShopperpalooza: This is the best notebook ever. I was a little hesitant at the price, but it is absolutely worth every penny. Even using my fattest, juiciest fountain pens, there is NO ink bleed-through. The paper is delightfully smooth and makes hand-writing a joy. The brilliant white surface reveals subtleties of ink shading that I've never seen before. Any cheaper, mass-market, big brand notebook (and I've tried them all) cannot begin to compare with Hamelin's quality.

Amazon Customer: I bought this notebook for revision after seeing that they were thicker pages. I honestly see no difference in this paper than a normal notebook. But like the feature that you can take a picture and have it on your phone

born too lateborn too late: Sturdy board covers, front and back were important to me because I don’t always have a flat surface available. Also, nice wide spiral binding means pages turn easily. Pages are college ruled, and perforated for easy removal. They also seem to be of good quality, not flimsy, and I am not having bleed through issues using fountain pen ink. I cannot say how it would handle other kinds of ink. It has a pocket inside the cover, which will be useful. Also included is a page of peel and stick labels which can be used like bookmarks. I have not tried these so I won’t review them.

I am very well pleased with this purchase and have ahead ordered a second one.

Bookman: After a 10-year search, I believe I have found the perfect notebook for me, the Hamelin 8x10 1-subject hardcover dual-wire bound notebook. I am an avid fountain pen user who keeps all of his noteworthy ideas in a single notebook (until full) and also takes that notebook everywhere. All I need are 4 qualities I have never before, crazily enough, seen in any one notebook: (1) FOUNTAIN-PEN-FRIENDLY PAPER; (2) HARD COVER; (3) B-5 OR SEMI B-5 SIZE; and (4) DOUBLE WIRE BINDING.

First, the paper is smooth; I have not experienced any feathering or bleed-through or show-through; and I can easily write on both sides of a sheet. Fortunately for everyone reading this review, all FP-friendly paper works well with pencils and other pens. Second, the hardcover and double-wire binding allow me to write on-the-go and anywhere, with or without a desk or table. The notebook does not have to lie on my lap open and unwieldy, taking up 16-plus inches of space: it can be "folded" back on itself. Third, the B-5/semi B-5 size is a perfect Goldilocks size for me—neither too large nor too small. On top of all that, the paper is bright white, which flatters the various ink colors I use. The ruling...
