What are you writing with?

I write with a Lamy Al-Star EF nib and use take-sume black ink from Pilot; Leuchtturm doesn't bleed at all; doesn't feather either. Moleskine doesn't work nearly as well for fountain pens—too much feathering.

Capless EF, Diamine Red Dragon. We cannot be talking about the same books, my friend ordered one and found the same problem, not sure what they were using. Bled badly with a Pilot C4, as well.

I got a Leuchtturm once out of curiosity. Could only use one side of each sheet. Sometimes it was so bad I had to leave a leaf entirely blank on both sides. Absolutely worthless paper. For a good a5 notebook we are spoiled for choice at that price point. I’ve been enjoying Yu-Sari lately. Where I struggle is finding good paper in a pocket notebook.
