Pocket (Mini 6-hole) Organisers Leather Hinge System Notebook Brown

This system notebook opens with a hinge fashioned from leather and thread. The size is Mini 6-hole (Pocket size), designed for 127x80mm 6-hole paper. The distinctive leather hinge, a hallmark of its individuality, is achieved through our proprietary research and crafting method. It involves intricate cutting and shaping, followed by meticulous filing of each individual piece to achieve a perfect, interlocking fit. The advantages of this hinge extend beyond its unique appearance. It lays perfectly flat when opened, preventing it from unintentionally closing due to creases. Furthermore, the areas that flex during opening and closing will not experience extreme degradation over time. The material is a substantial 2mm thick Tochigi leather, a vegetable-tanned cowhide renowned for its beautiful aging process. The lustrous top-grain finish is a signature of aniline-dyed leather. The Mini 6-hole size offers the appeal of compactness. We have made it as small as possible, so please confirm the dimensions to ensure it suits your needs. With a 15mm ring diameter, it comfortably holds approximately 100 sheets of paper, making it ideal for refills. To allow you to start using it immediately, we've included 50 sheets of our personal favorite "St Et R D'ORICA MEMO REFILL SREF-G-01" 5mm graph paper. This thoughtful inclusion ensures a smooth start for newcomers and avoids waste for experienced users. The market offers a wide variety of compatible paper, diaries, indexes, and clear pockets, allowing you to customize your notebook into a truly personal creation. For maintenance, use a delicate cream sparingly. As this item is not subjected to the strong stresses of bags or shoes, the natural oils from your hands are often sufficient. In fact, be mindful of over-applying leather creams or oils. The metal ring mechanism is designed with screws for easy replacement should any damage occur. We hope you enjoy the rich patina and character it develops over time. 【About Tochigi Leather】 This leather retains natural characteristics like pores and blood vessel marks, emitting a faint, pleasant aroma when brought close.
