Just like the Sigel Conceptum they claim to be fountain pen proof, but medium and broad nibs have bleed through.Wilconoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-70055973342981087962014-07-22T05:02:27.390-04:002014-07-22T05:02:27.390-04:00My pleasure - thanks for stopping by :) I've S...My pleasure - thanks for stopping by :) I've SEEN the Master.. man that is one huge notebook lol. I should check it out though. I like these notebooks, even if they aren't 100% with the fountain pens, but it sounds like the Master might fare a little better than these little ones.Azizah Asgaralihttp://www.gourmetpens.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-84240868573052534432014-07-20T16:51:47.807-04:002014-07-20T16:51:47.807-04:00Thanks for the review.

I've got one in the Master size - it's 100gsm and handles really broad nibs well.Pen Obsessionnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-37160344723255064202012-05-04T23:24:25.750-04:002012-05-04T23:24:25.750-04:00I'm glad you liked it!

Thank you for commenting to let me know, I really appreciate it :) You know, despite the feathering and bleed through, I still really like this dot paper. I have to go investigate to see if they've made a soft/flexible cover instead of just the hardcovers... that would be real happiness for me!<br />I recently tried a Pilot medium nib fountain pen and it writes very wonderfully on this paper. It does bleed a little, but I just doodle on the backs of the pages. No big deal :)GourmetPensnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484890041572022255.post-32008358382665576172012-05-04T18:04:06.963-04:002012-05-04T18:04:06.963-04:00Very helpful review, thank you for being so thorou...Very helpful review, thank you for being so thorough. I wonder if it really is possible to create an 80gsm truly inkproof paper? Rhodia (Clairefontaine) have done it at 90gsm, but I haven't heard as yet about thinner papers being really acceptable with anything other than a fine nib and light hand, as you mentioned.Ophelia Darcynoreply@blogger.com
