I’ve tried different notebooks over the years, but the LEUCHTTURM1917 A5 Softcover has quickly become my favourite for everyday use.
The A5 format is perfect: large enough for comfortable writing, yet compact and lightweight enough to carry everywhere. With 123 numbered pages, it offers just the right amount of space for daily notes without becoming too bulky or heavy. It’s an ideal everyday carry notebook.
I particularly appreciate the flexible cover, numbered pages, and overall attention to detail. The quality is excellent, and everything feels thoughtfully designed.
The 80 gsm paper works beautifully with ballpoint ink, whether I’m writing at my desk or taking quick notes on the go. I’ve also tried rollerball ink, which produces some ghosting on the reverse side, but no actual bleed-through. With ballpoint ink, writing on both sides of the page is a pleasure.
Simple, elegant, practical, and a joy to write in. It has become an essential part of my daily routine, and I’ll definitely be buying more in different colours!
