Love it! Mine looks like that too!

Oh my gosh. Life isn’t always pretty. Why should our journals have to be? I keep a couple of planners/trackers for different things, and one book where I actually write about the day. Trust me, my most functional ones are NOT pretty. I’m busy LIVING my life, not making pretty pages.

originality! thanks for sharing, i love it hehehehe

Can you tell me where did you purchase the inner cover for your murdy pocket leather?

Thank you! I really appreciated seeing the mini 5 paper against the mini sized paper comparison. That pretty much says it all😅

I need an update. How is it after using it? Worth $250?

Hell yeah. Practicality above all! Also, for me this is super aesthetic to look at!

Looks like a functional bullet type listing notebook which is what works for most of us! Love your leather cover! Where did you get it?❤

Thank you

That is how my note book looks. Lots of random notes and doodles.

I love it! This was so encouraging to me. I’ve always kept notebooks and lists in them, but also other things. And it’s never been pretty and this made me feel better about myself. Thanks.

It's not "ugly", it's quirky and has character! Lol. But honestly, if it works as intended, who cares what it looks like. Don't be discouraged by all the artistic journals people post on the Grams or Toks or whatevers for validation and vanity.

looks perfect for me. it served its purpose 👍

I bought the same and made the same coment: its dark green. Its beautiful but I don't see any shade of blue except for the photo i took. What do you think after all these days? I'm going to keep it any way.

Your notebook is not ugly, it is functional and practical and it does a great job. i would rather watch a video on how your notebook works rather than all the decorated ones put together. Plus it looks used and the drawings from the children are brilliant.

Your notebook isn't ugly...it's LIFE! 😊

Thanks for featuring this pouch! I just bought one today out of curiosity, looks really handy for my travels (it holds so much!) 😄

Your notebook looks great! I would consider it a functional notebook. TFS!

Looks stiff

23 hour fast?? You are my spirit animal! Keep wrecking that notebook, that’s what it’s for! Also, mine looks very similar ❤

Do you find the end of the backplates sharp

Are you still in this size / style . Would like to see a flip

Hi, would you ever consider selling this wallet? Thanks 😊

I wanted a Sidekick when they came out with it in 2017. I bought a smaller one in a different brand instead. I vowed if they came out with it again, I would buy one. So, I bought the bird print leather. I agree with some of the same things you say. The leather seems fragile. I would not put my phone in the front pocket for that reason. I don’t care for the pen loop for the same reason as you. I may remove it. It may be my imagination, but I feel like it is about an inch taller and somewhat wider than the original. I bought a B6 slim off- brand notebook for it and it fits fine (except for the awkward pen loop). I just feel it is more bulky than the original and just not as convenient to carry. Thanks for your validating video. It’s pretty and I’ll just use it as a TN. 😊

The best Man-Bag you could ever own. Fantastic product.

This is awesome. I need to use this with of young engineers

Beautiful collection 😍...i have recently implemented the pocket size notebook into my day. I bought a cheap pu cover on amazon...now im regretting my purchase 😅

My hand writing is a mess always has been so my journals tend to be a bit of a mess , it is what it is .

You live near me!

Epic fail-if you don’t use washi tape and write the date in calligraphy, your notebook is useless 😁 😂

Mine are very basic. Once I quit trying to make them look like the ones artsy people do, I started to enjoy the process of finding what really works for me. I envy those people who have the patience to do the fancy layouts. I am not patient and even my stickmen get laughed at. So mine resemble yours.

Love a well used, lived in notebook 😊

I became obsessed with Field Notes this year and have stacks of them! I've been using A5 Planners/Notebooks for more than 30 years, but I am wanting to down-size now that my life is simpler (Empty Nester, getting ready to retire.) I also purchased a bunch of leather covers (mostly from re-sellers) because I love changing out covers for the seasons! I just adore the way real leather covers look and change with use! Thanks for sharing!

As much as I enjoy seeing other people's lovely, decorated spreads, I feel no need to copy them! I am very much a functional planner and while I like my planner to be "tidy," I also want it to be useful! I think the most charming flips I have seen are the ones where the user checks things off, scratches things out, and uses all kinds of different pens and changes their set-up mid-stream. Their Planners/Notebooks feel "lived in," and use of their own handwriting (not stickers or decorative lettering) makes them feel so much more personal!

You can use a Midori B6 slim notebook. Those fit as well

I think that looseness is intended for you to be able to align the nib with the clip when the cap's posted. In your case there isn't a clip, so that issue is moot. Anyway, just hold the nib in one hand, the black collar in the other, and tighten.

Looks perfect to me :)

Looks like it would do well as a front pocket wallet.

Murdy creative just came out with the passport size #7. I purchased one and can’t wait to get it. I’m trying these P&G planners. 👍🏻 good vid. Thanks

Love the functional side of it Also, Energel pens are my favourite.

That is by design. That holds the nib unit. Just screw it in tighter.

I use those planners. They fit perfectly in a passport size TN cover.

Love the colour/features on that but also the pen screwing up and compressing in size is awesome.

Leather looks beautiful ❤

Very cool

This is intentional! Not really useful for your Ultem BUT in my case with my Titanium Petrol including a clip. To bring in line the nib with my clip I have to loosen to exact your situation. To tighten you need to gently hold the nib and screw the black metal. Not the best job since your nib is inked. But in my case everything is tight and the Nova Pocket rocks! If you loose it more you can change the whole nib unit. Not the cheapest option but I‘m with a Titanium nib, interchangeable with other Bock nibs (#6).

Thank you to Jim @zeus52452 for sharing how to tighten this! Now I love this pen even more! 😊

That does sound a little disappointing. I'd contact support to see what they say

I just recently got this pen in the beadblasted Ti finish, and am very happy with it. I needed to tweak the nib a little to get the flow right, but it's a keeper. I didn't know it came in ultem; I guess I wasn't paying attention. I do have an ultem full size pen from Schon DSGN; its Jowo steel nib was superb right out of the box. I do love the look and feel of ultem. Light without feeling cheap.

My Nova Pocket Titanium in the beadblasted finish with a Fine nib arrived a couple of days ago. In terms of size, it's a little bit shorter than my Ensso XS Minimalist Pocket Fountain Pen when capped, but longer when posted. Right now I have it inked up with the Short Standard International cartridge that it came with. I have both a Kaweco converter & a short squeeze aerometric style converter that I may try in the pen later on.
