Kevin Danny Leatherette Notebook A5, Ruled, Brown (145mm x 210mm), 200 Pages, 80 GSM

The notebook was deformed when I have received it. It felt like that the covers are not strong enough. They bend even under the pressure of the elastic string! I didn't open the notebook so I can not comment on the paper quality. I am returning the item.

Last page was torn, the leather book cover was coming out from one corner (I had to stick it with Fevicol). Two pages was missing lines and were blank. I have attached the pictures. But the paper quality was good and it was cheaper than amazon basics notebook and also they gave free delivery. So I didn't return the product and adjusted. I guess this book is handmade.

So, smells green.Love the outer weird design. They do give obsessive attention to detail.Beautiful Texxxture.Strap is tight.Bookmark is satin and strongly embedded over the top. It stretches about 1" more.What i Did not like? The calendar pages. 4. Ahem ahem.Still love it.PS: Wrote it with my parker blue and page does not bleed.

Excellent quality. Good paper (does not bleed and smooth to write).Feels good in hand. Very nice finish.I wish the first few pages (12 maybe) had a planner/organizer, a page for each month, built in the notebook to add more utility.I surely recommend this product.

Pros:1. Strong build quality2. Good paper quality3. High quality elastic band that keeps the diary closedCons:1. The leatherette cover doesn't look half as good as you see in the images.2. The finishing is very poor. The cutting of the corners and edges look like being done by a three year old.Overall review: I think it is an overly priced item with decent quality. You can easily buy a similar or even better item from your local store under 200 rupees.

Packaging: Received in Good condition.Leather Cover: Good Quality but not premium quality. It is a soft cover, not hard cover like most of the executive diary is.Pages: In my case, first few pages (Calendar, names) were not clean i.e. little bit dirty and uneven marks. So, Except first few, rest of pages are good to use. Pages cut are fine.Ink: Tested with the Pilot, Gel and Parker ink, it doesn't stick into another page even if you write hard.Size: Notebook size was small as I was expecting little bigger than this. But, it is manageable and handy.

Overly expensive. It's a pretty regular vanilla diary, not sure why so overly priced. Its cover isn't that strong, not does it have an exceptional paper quality.

No negatives with the notebook. Easy to fold. Beautiful leather look, goes great with a leather side bag. Every ink(type of pen) runs smoothly. Pencil led runs smoothly too with clear text. When erased, it doesn't wrinkle the paper(if done neatly). Good product.
