Whether you’re a design-obsessed writer or just tired of covering your computer with Post-it Note to-do lists, a reliable, minimal notebook is the best way to keep track of your best ideas. This one’s got 192 pages of thick, smooth paper (perfectly suited to your new fountain pen) and half-gridded pages that give you the best of both worlds—that is, graph AND lined paper. It's protected by a coated poly-cotton hardcover and comes with a ribbon bookmark, so you can mark your place as you write the next great American novel (or your grocery list).

192 pages

Half-grid format (horizontal lined with light vertical lines).

Kaweco's been in the business of well-crafted pens since 1883, and they’ve packed all that history into this sharp, contemporary rendition. Each one is crafted from high-quality plastic to be compact when capped but just right when posted. A screw-on cap lends extra security, and the gold-plated nib with iridium tip ensures your pen flows as smoothly as your words. We've also included six blue ink cartridge refills, plus a gold-tone pocket clip so you'll have it with you whenever and wherever inspiration strikes.

Medium nib (23 KT gold-plated stainless steel).
