Light, slim and easy to carry

At 60 pages, the W3001 is ideal as a single-subject notebook, a meeting book or an ink-swatching notebook. The 8mm A-ruled lines leave plenty of room between rows, so broad nibs and generous handwriting never feel squeezed.

Japan’s fountain pen favourite

Ask around Japanese pen circles and Tsubame comes up again and again. The W3001 uses the same 81.4gsm Fools paper that built that reputation: smooth, controlled and generous to every kind of ink.

Classic Tsubame build

Like every Tsubame Note book, the W3001 is threadbound for strength and flexibility, and finished with the brand’s familiar understated cover.
