This was only present with one of the 11 pens tested, so this is also not a major concern. Upon closer inspection, I noticed a very small amount of feathering. Part of being a fountain pen user is learning patience, so this is not a major issue. Although the paper is very comfortable to write on, dry time does get extended a bit. The paper provides very little feedback with most pen nibs, fountain or otherwise. Inside you’ll find some surprisingly thick paper that feels incredibly smooth and possibly coated, like Rhodia or Clairefontaine. The A6 notebook matches the quality and feel inside and out, just in a smaller 14.8cm by 10.5cm size. The cover is thicker card paper that is malleable, but will crease if bent. The notebook measures 21cm by 14.8cm, which makes it just a fraction taller and wider than a Leuchtturm A5 hardcover, for reference. The A5 High Quality notebook is a softcover 72 sheet notebook with 6mm lined ruling. Muji offers several options in their notebook category, but at $4 the High Quality line seemed like the best choice. Long story short, here is what I spent $30 on after using a random pen for a few minutes. About a day and a half later, after a quick Google search, I found myself circling the stationery section of my local Muji store with hungry eyes and a fresh paycheck. I agreed to take a look at it, thinking I would see another suitably functional but unremarkable rollerball or gel pen. Recently a friend sent me a pen with a brief note indicating that this is, by a fairly wide margin, her absolute favorite pen and that I should review it.
