X17 SuperBuch refillable notebook review

[@stephanfeinen3923]

I had to smile as you wrote "SuperBauch" in the video title which means "Super belly" in german instead of "SuperBuch" which just means "Super book".

🤣🤣🤣

I splorted tea at that one! But hey, not everyone needs to know German (my second favourite language to speak, behind Swahili).

Very recently they upgraded their inserts by using a more fountain pen friendly paper. Maybe LCDC haven't been restocked yet.

i can definitely see myself getting this and filling it with the slim Clairefontaine A5 books but i'm just now getting into traveller's, sooo I should enjoy it before getting another one~~~ good to see competition though. a full size a5 has so many more advantages

[@ziawoolzstudiobuzz313]

Hey, definitely Buch - big difference in meaning as others have already said! Yep I know, hard word to pronounce! 😊 Thank you for what you do! Hi from NM - Dag (paperdag)

That’s great, I have to consider that option when I finish my notebook :) thanks for the review :)

[@fastandcurious]

In case even the new paper quality doesn't work for certain inks or fountain pens, how about using other brands with similar sized, thin notebooks ? An indentation is quickly done, using a paper puncher for example.

Thanks for doing this review. I had seen one other video for x17 a while back and was interested, now I'm kinda not sure. My husband REALLY hates the smell of rubber. Not the hugest deal, and the notebook would be in my office but I kinda don't want to ban my husband from my office LOL That said I also write primarily with fountain pens so it not being great paper for that would be the real dealbreaker.

I'm really surprised something like that would come out of Germany. My idea of Germany has been to be top quality & price and so be a luxury item. It makes me wonder if it was meant for pencil only.

[@stephanfeinen3923]

Are you sure this is plastic? I checked their website (BTW you can select an english version but I'll stick to the german text) and the word "Lefa" on the white EAN-label on the back translates to "ökologisches Lederfasermaterial" or "recycled/regenerated leather" which means this thing is made of chopped leather combined with an organic glue and pressed. They also offer this in a massive leather version at a higher price.

[@PensandTea]

If it is, it doesn’t feel like leather, it feels exactly like non ridged plastic lol

[@fastandcurious]

Correct, and it fells both natural and "composite". I would describe it as pleasantly leatherish as the cover is made of leather fibre material. I have the A6 in yellow and the cover is great, doesn't bend to easily, but really protects the notebooks well and is flexible enough to be comfortable when stuffing it into a pocket.

[@domtidom8912]

On the label you can see the leather icon. Its made of leftover leather pressed and glued together

411pens in Cinci - cool local American store - if someone wants it before Christmas. Ask for the X17 SuperBook.

Hi, Nice chanel.... do you know the rocketbook erasable... I was wandering if there is an ink which can be easily erasable with water.... I tried with Parker qink ink with my rocketbook but unfortunately I can’t erase the ink at all....it’s a pity beacause an erasable notebook with fountain pens will be the perfect combination... thanks

[@jumpkeys]

So many opportunities for military crass comments. I will refrain. ...I will also purchase these now for my daughters. A dremel / punch can knock out an insert notch quickly so I may replace.

[@louizelimepips3517]

🧐 I see you wrote Pilot Preppy.. 😄 you probably mean Platinum Preppy.

[@neemecka]

I cant understand why everyone tests the sharpie, because you cant use the sharpie anywhere. At all i dont know for which intention the sharpie was ade for. Its not usefull for Bullet Journal nor for drawing nor for children. Just throw it .😂

[@archivist17]

Interesting, but not quite my cup of tea.
