Midori MD Notebook A5 Grid

Midori MD Notebook A5 Grid

The Midori MD Notebook Grid A5 is made of Midori’s signature paper. The Grid notebook has a 5 x 5 mm grid printed in blue on the MD PAPER pages and are bound with the “Gakari” stitching method. The latter enabling the notebook to open entirely flat, regardless of the section of the notebook.

What we love most of this Midori MD Notebook Grid A5 is its clean and simple design. The 176 grid pages make this notebook a lot of value for its money.

Midori has developed covers for its MD Notebooks in plastic and leather.

MD Paper is Midori’s pride when it comes to the art of making paper. Being a stationery manufacturer from the 1950’s, MD Paper can be described as part of their blueprint. Ever since Midori made MD Paper in the 1960’s, they have applied the Japanese ‘Kaizen’ principle, meaning they are continuously looking for ways to improve its quality. The result is paper that will not stain, or bleed and is fantastic to write on, especially with a fountain pen.

Not only the paper itself has been developed carefully, also the method of binding deserves an explanation. The MD Notebooks are bound by means of stitching; a large sheet of papier is folded into a bundle of 16 pages. Then, such bundles are bound with thread. This method enables the notebook to open entirely flat, ensuring ease of writing, without a bumpy middle.

To honor this method of binding, Midori has left the cover uncovered, so its spine exposes the cheesecloth tape, which is used to reinforce the bound paper. The MD notebook comes with a wax paper cover.
