Product description

A waterproof notebook made from the byproduct waste of limestone mines. 30 pages. Not only waterproof, but warproof as well - these are much more durable than your regular paper notebooks. There's really no downside in this.

Limestone based paper

Modestone's limestone based paper is pretty neat. In comparison to Rite-in-the-rain this stuff is stronger and absolutely 100% waterproof, you can have a piece submerged for months without it taking any damage! It is also extremely resistant to wrinkling. A really neat feature is the fact that on top of the usual pens and pencils you can also use metal such as keys or bullets to write! We suggest using a pencil on these. In all honesty the only downside to Modestone paper is it's slight softness which takes some getting used to when writing with hard tipped pencils.

Recycling, son!

As said before, these are made of byproduct waste of limestone mines, which means the books are a vulgar display of ecological thinking.

Made in Finland

Made in Parola, Finland. Modestone is a pretty new player in the world of waterproof papers but a prime example of Finnish innovation. Modestone notebooks are currently in law enforcement and military use in Finland, and they´re steadily gaining fame out there in the big world too.

While costly, approx 0.15 euro per page - I managed to fit up to 6 words per line (25 lines per page) = max. 19200 words per notebook - realize that this isnt for keeping notes from a university lecture. This notebook strikes the perfect size for keeping it compact while being comfortable to use and retaining a decent amount of information per page. It doesnt self destruct like any of the A4 or A5 sized notebooks in a bag, and is quite sturdy. It fits perfectly in my cargo pocket, PC or chest rig. It sadly doesnt fit my Sarma Organizer, but that should be expected. The paper is comfortable to write on, alcohol based markers wont seep through to the other page, and sometimes when writing too hard with a pen, it will stretch and etch the page, making a "valley"/"groove" instead of ripping it. It also features tiny holes on the "spine" side - meaning you dont need to take a knife to cut the page away. Water resistance is on point, the ink sometimes failed sooner than the materiel itself. TEST YOUR PENS! There is no issue with pens, graphite "pencils", nor water and alcohol markers, or neon highlighters.

Pretty solidly built product with a ton of features. my favourite feature is the pre cut part that allows you to tear the sheets evenly. The paper also feels strange to the touch (most likely the waterproof constriction) and is a pleasure to write on 10/10 would buy again
