Quo Vadis Habana Blank Notebook initial review sketching tests

The next item that Karen from Exaclair graciously sent me for review is the Quo Vadis Habana blank notebook. Simply click on this link for the 3-minute video review and speed sketching demo.
Used the recently reviewed J. Herbin Creapen Refillable Marker to christen this anise green Habana blank journal. It seemed appropriate since they both arrived together.
Both the Rotring Art Pen with a F nib and the Platinum Carbon Fountain Pen glided effortlessly on this paper. The former was loaded with Liquitex Acrylic Carbon Black Ink, and the latter has its own proprietary waterproof carbon ink cartridges.
Quickly discovered that it wasn't such a great idea to use the J. Herbin Encre de Chine India Ink with the glass pen since it took quite a bit of scrubbing and soap to get it clean again. Certainly happy that I did not put India Ink in a fountain pen by mistake. The glass pen and the J. Herbin 1670 Anniversary ink did work quite nicely on the Habana notebook as shown on this video.
While its Clairefontaine 90 g paper might have been designed to be "the best paper in the world for writing", it also makes for a mighty fine sketchbook for drawing with its smooth ultra white surface. While I would prefer for the notebook covers to be more rigid, they seem sturdy enough to withstand the regular stress of being thrown in a backpack for sketching on the go. The Quo Vadis Habana would certainly make a fine choice for a sketchbook to keep in the studio and work with fountain pens.
