  1. I think the colours on the Index page should match the colours of the sticky tabs?? So you can visually see each section?? Also, was the paper perforated? Maybe that's the difference with the black notebook???

  2. I’m sure I’ve complimented your photography before but just wanted to say I very much enjoy the multi camera set up. Great job. I’ve been interested in these notebooks. Alack and alas, I remain on a stationary ban. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

  3. Have you ever checked out the Tactical Notebook Covers youtube channel. The notebooks are made specifically for military but can also be used for civilian use as well. I think their notebook covers and binders are interesting. You should check it out!

  4. Interesting video. Do not like the notebooks if the pages are not repositionable. I have seen people on Yt remove the ring mechanism from their Filofax Saffiano in order to house/carry their Hobonichi Weeks planner in it. I like that the Saffiano is versatile.

  5. Japanese stationery companies seem to be a lot more innovative than Filofax nowadays. Ashford in Japan produce removable ring mechanisms very similar to the one you showed. But they sell them separately, and offer a variety of formats (including A5, A6 & personal)!
    I’ve got two different types in personal size – both of riveted construction, but I’ve found them to be good quality nonetheless. One has metal rings and the other durable plastic. They are very handy.

  6. I haven't watched all your video yet, but would like to comment re packaging. I'm not impressed with their packing. I ordered three Filofaxes ( cheap ones) and only two arrived. Oversight rather than theft. (But their customer service is excellent. They sent another one out immediately). They were in a flimsy jiffy bag. Also I don't the plain cardboard boxes as they are slighty over sized and the filos can get bashed about. The nice patterned, more sturdy boxes were a lot better. Having to cut open the bottom of the box is absurd. Rant over and I will continue watching your video I am enjoying very much.😉
