Tomoe River FP 52gsm Loose Sheet by SANZEN, 5.85 x 8.27 Inches (A5-Size), White, 100 Sheets/Pack (SR-A5P-W)

Beautiful, thin and smooth paper. Almost doesn't feel real. The pen glides over the paper and the ink doesn't soak through

Best writing paper to use with a fountain pen. Just love it.

Light weight paper which I was looking for. I write with a fountain pen no bleed through the paper for me. I like the colour of the paper

Good quality fountain pen friendly paper. Good for letter writing and all other uses

After three years waiting, I have finally got it again! It was delivered faster than said and is exactly the same as what I used to buy three years ago. A big Thank You to the seller. I have been using different kinds of paper for fountain pen hand writing, but this one is the best of all. It is thin, light, and very smooth. You can write on both sides of the paper if you wanted to and no ink goes through to the other side. I like it very much and would definitely recommend it.

This paper is quality but for fountain pen writing I thought it was too thin so wouldn’t buy again. Horses for courses as they say.

Wonderful

It's nice paper but my ink soaks right through it, and feathers. Not quite enough to make reading hard but enough to be distracting and unpleasant to write on.

Ich bin schon seit Langem von diesem Papier überzeugt. Auch der Versand war reibungslos. Gerne wieder.

If you are a fountain pen enthusiast then Tomoe River paper will not be new for you. It is regarded as the #1 paper for writing on with fountain pens. It is the paper against which all others are compared to.

練習用で使っています。透けて下のお手本をなぞれて、裏に滲んだりせず、書きやすいです！

Tomoe River paper is renowned for its thinness while still preventing bleed-through of fountain pen inks. I purchased this to make refills for my Midori Traveler's Notebook. It is beneficial in applications like that where you want minimal thickness to obtain maximum number of pages in a given space. There is also a unique aesthetic factor this paper provides with a bit of "crinkle" to the pages. This paper is similar to what you find in many bibles, where to use regular paper would make the book extremely thick. While this is listed as a "white" paper, it is really off-white. I would say "cream" would be a better description. Also, it is important to note that while this paper does a great job of preventing bleed-through (ink soaking through to opposite side) it does not fully prevent ghosting (ink showing through as a shadow). With its thinness there is just no way to prevent being able to see the text on the opposite side of the page. The amount of ghosting that occurs will differ depending on what you write with and the thickness of the writing instrument. I would say this is the paper's biggest limiting factor. I prefer to use a very fine or fine nib pen when I use this paper, to limit the see-through. Overall, it is great paper. One last thing for anyone who wonders, this paper CAN be used in a laser printer. I print lines on the pages I make for my notebook with no trouble. There is an occasional page with a crinkle in it, but I would say this happens less than 5% of the time - pretty impressive for such a thin paper. I didn't need to use a "lead-in" sheet or anything.

Tomoe River paper is absolutely FABULOUS to work with, I am a mixed media artist who uses a lot of watercolor. It does not bleed through, very strong, and has a deliciously "crunchy" sound as you move the pages. It results in artwork that is really interesting as the paper takes art supplies beautifully. I usually buy the paper in journals but I was lucky enough to find these loose leaf papers!! SO HANDY!! Thanks for a wonderful product, will buy again.
