    I absolutely love Rhodia products. Using their 2023 daily for my guitar practice journal. I have a bunch of "cheap Amazon fresh" notebooks I have to burn through before I go back to using the Rhodia for journaling again. 2024 I am planning on possibly switching to Hobonichi for my journaling. The 5 year looks like it would be cool to have.

    Leuchtturm 1917 is my go to journal, but I'm constantly trying other notebooks too. I've been using Minimalism Art notebooks a lot lately, as they are a third of the price and have decent paper. I use fountain pens exclusively and have never had any issues.

  • @nickklett
    @nickklett Год назад +4

    I actually use all three! The Leuchtturm is great for meetings because the ink seems to dry faster. The Endless is great for inks. The Rhodia is a perfect in the middle of the road everything will write on and look good kind of notebook.

    @JoeyTrejo10 Год назад +3

    I've tried both the Leuchtturm and the Endless Recorder with Tomoe River Paper, they both have things I like, so it's hard to choose! I think I might choose Endless notebooks just because of how their paper ensures your ink colors will shine!

    Thanks for the comparisons, this is good to know! I've been using the Endless Recorder for a couple years now. Seems to be my go-to. I did get a Leuchtturm monthly planner this year, and like it a lot. Rhodia quality is fantastic. I have one of their tiny notepads and love it. I should try their journal as well.

    I've bought a lot of Leuchtturms! They're my go to for all journaling, bullet and long form. It's hard to expand my collection because I'm tightly constrained by cost, and by my fountain pen use, so the paper is really important. Thanks for going through the comparison!

    I've watched a lot of reviews, but only subscribed to your channel. Why? Because of the organised way you present your material, editing so that the three notebooks are listed with comparative spec, and I can always see which notebook you're talking about, because you put its name on the screen in case we missed it! Thanks for doing a good job.

    I have been journaling since 1976. At the time I used regular notebooks and ballpoints. In the last two years I fell down the rabbit hole and discovered Rhodia products and fountain pens. Major style and game changer. I have yet to try a 5 year journal, but that could be next in my journaling experience. Great video.

  • @lauran8367
    @lauran8367 Год назад

    I journal a lot and use notebooks for study purposes, but no bullet journaling which is why I have yet to try Leuchtturm. Am wrapping up a months-long transcription project of Homer’s Odyssey for which I used Endless Recorder notebooks - 7 in all. Agree it needs a blotter and hand guard as others have said but it is wonderful for showing off inks. I will say though that wetter inks in broader nibs do feather and bleed through a bit - for example, Pilot Parallel 1.5 with Pilot mixable inks. I love Rhodia paper too but am partial to their A4 notebooks, although they only come lined. I appreciate the larger size. I have larger handwriting and burn through A5 notebooks too fast! Thanks for a fun video!

    @DaffodilCloud Год назад

    I don’t bullet journal, but I plan and record my day in a Fiorentina lined journal refill. 400 pages, A5, ivory paper, and I have not had any issues with any fountain pen and ink combo I’ve thrown at it so far this year, including wet shimmer inks. Diarpell makes similar chunky A5 journals with FP friendly paper. Both are Italian companies. I’ll be going back to 100% discbound next year using a variety of papers from Office Depot, Levenger and Amazon.

  • @nordlyselsker
    @nordlyselsker Год назад

    I use the Leuchtturm bullet journal and am quite happy with it. I hadn't tried bullet journalling before, so the extras were quite helpful (even though I am doing things a bit differently). The paper is better than I had expected. I use all kinds of inks and nibs, including broad ones, and haven't had any problems with show-through. Most of the time, feathering isn't a problem either. It's not brilliant paper for fountain pens, but I find it perfectly adequate for the purpose of bullet journalling.
    I haven't used the Endless or Rhodia journals, but have used other products from both companies. The Endless might be fun to try for my next bullet journal because of the paper. Currently, I don't do stuff like ink swatches or ink paintings in my bullet journal, but with the Endless, that might change. But that might also be a distraction from the main purpose of the journal.

    I've been using the Endless for my own bullet journal-ish system for most of year now, and it's solid. The Regalia can be a bit sensitive to finger oils, so having a blotter to rest your hand on of some sort matters in my experience. The Rhodia really appeals as next one I would try.

  • @gloriavillanueva2913
    @gloriavillanueva2913 Год назад

    My vote for my favorite keeps changing. I have only used Rhodia and Leuchtturm, but I have an unopened Endless Recorder with Tomoe River that will be used after my current notebook. Since I use pencil, fountain pens, and other various media types, I lean towards Leuchtturm. Their paper seems to do well with what I throw at it. I am curious about the Regalia paper. I feel like Rhodia is best used with fountain pens, and their ivory paper seems like it should be covered in a story set in Medieval times.

  • @wesleyh271

    I’d agree with your bag dump video. The endless note book are my new favorites. The Tomoe River paper is thinner than the new Regalia paper and the new Regalia paper is more toothy than the Tomoe River paper.
    I’m finding myself liking the new Regalia paper the best.

    Rodia since that is the one that I haven't tried yet. All of them great choices as picks for bullet journals but ones that area also FP friendly!

  • @a22lotti
    @a22lotti Год назад

    Funny, I've used almost the same notebooks you have, in the same order. Began with a Leuchtturm (standard, though, not the BuJo version); followed by a Rhodia Goalbook; then detoured to a Rhodia Webnotebook, which was not a dot grid, because I wasn't bulleting as much at that point; and finally used a TR Endless Recorder (so I haven't had a taste of Regalia paper yet).
    So out of the three you presented today, I've only really used the Goalbook, and I know I liked that one. In theory, the extra features on the LT BuJo edition are cool, but a) I'm not bullet journaling much anymore (mostly just long form now) and b) I don't know if I could compromise on the paper - feathering and bleed through bug me. I don't write with broads a lot, but I do like stubs, and those can put down even more ink. I think, out of the three, I would probably pick the Endless Recorder as the one I'd most want to get.

  • @danielchaveznunez6907
    @danielchaveznunez6907 Год назад

    I have only tried the leuchttrum, but the rodia and endless looked very interesting! Might have to buy one from you all to test out. But with all of the features I think the leuchttrum looks more high end so I think that one wins this round

    This was a great video, very informative! I only have the Leuchturm 1917 but would love to try the Rhodia! I tend to use medium or broad nibs as thicker lines are easier for me to see as a visually-impaired person, and the Leuchturm bleed through, especially with my broad nibs, is frustrating! 😤

    great comparison, i love all 3 brands generally, but i prefer lighter paper; in spite of extras in the Leuchturm , the Rhodia wins it for me, lighter paper and slightly nicer for the fountain pens, makes the overall journal lighter + pen loop!

    @redmoonvenus7327 Год назад

    I know that I would love the Rhodia because of the paper, but I am surprised that it is more costly than the other two, being the one that seems to have the least special features (apart for the paper, which may explain the price?)
    I love the Leuchtturm usual 90gsm paper (it works well with F and MF nibs, and it has a slight tooth to it that I like, especially if I write with an oversmooth nib). I am very curious about this thicker version, I wonder if it has the same feel to it.

    For me, Leuchtturm would win. I recently tried out their paper and I just liked it. Also, the amount of features it comes with, seems vast to me.
    But the choice was not easy. I haven't tested the other papers yet, but I definitley will.
    My favorite paper is Tomoe River, but I'm still looking for a worthy alternative for "casual writing"

    @spiderwrangler4457 Год назад

    I haven’t used any of these notebooks or brands before so either giveaway would be just fine with me. 😉 Based on the information in this review, I would have to give the edge to the Luechtturm1917 since it has a sturdier cover and the three bookmarks.

  • @dianedemasi
    @dianedemasi Год назад

    I can't put in a solid vote. I use a regular Leuchtturm 1917 but haven't tried the Bullet Journal version. Neither have I tried a Rhodia, but it's on my want list. Endless looks pretty nice, too. I love paper and pens and use all that I get. Even the not-so-fabulous paper that comes in some mainstream journals (had to use them, my kids gave them to me and I can't not use a journal). Journals that can handle fountain pens are high on my want list, so maybe I'll give a vote for each one because they all seem pretty great. Sorry, for the indecisiveness.
