Review: Excellent Sketchbook, Great Quality - I bought this sketchbook because the other one I had contained paper that smudged badly when erased. This sketchbook has proven to be quite excellent in that the paper doesn't smudge as badly as my old sketchbook's and that erasing can be done in a clean fashion. The paper is high quality and even though I have gone in hard with some of my pencils, the backside of the paper is still clean and usable. The book itself is a great, it's thick and the cover feels nice to touch. One thing I really love about this sketchbook is that when I open it up and leave it open to certain pages, the paper remains flat and open to said page rather than the papers flipping over on their own due to the spinal bend of the book and binding. The binding for this sketchbook is also good. I am very satisfied with this order. The cover can be indented into if not taken care of properly, as well as the book corners, but those things don't bother me. Overall, it was a great purchase.
Review: Pricy, but great notebook - I use this notebook for gardening notes. The paper is thick and great for sketching and note taking. The cover has a quality feel and holds up well to transportation and dirt smudges. I plan to buy more when needed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Sketchbook, Great Quality

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pricy, but great notebook

I use this notebook for gardening notes. The paper is thick and great for sketching and note taking. The cover has a quality feel and holds up well to transportation and dirt smudges. I plan to buy more when needed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great paper
*by M***M on February 21, 2014*

Great paper - accepts India ink without bleeding and the paper does not easily scratch, the binding is fine and the texture of the cover is great in the hand. I ask people I meet to draw in this book as a memento and they're all impressed by the quality and the way it lays (almost) flat. Great price
