 Hello everyone this is Amit Don of AmitDon.com Today I'll have another episode of unboxing and review video and I'll be opening the Pentalic Traveler Pocket Journal, a sketchbook. So this is meant to be a sketchbook or artist book and it's travel friendly but the advantage of this journal is that this is very small in size and it's very price friendly and you can still use it as a regular journal or travel journal So I'll open this up and I'll take a look at it and we'll talk about how good or bad this is going to be as a pocket journal or traveler's journal So the opening should be very easy and I just took out the plastic cover and let's go through some of the specs right here so you can see that this is very small three by four inch or seven point six by 10.2 centimeter and it has a 74 pound 120 gram acid-free paper and actually the paper is even recycled so you can see it right here and on the back of the journal we have some just description of the brand and looks like this is made in Italy which is the cover and crafted in Malawi Shia So let's remove the flap and here is what we have so as you can see that this is a very basic notebook or sketchbook and the pages are white and actually I can see that there's a small pocket on the flap right here so you can you know keeping cards or receipts or something like that and then if you wish then this cover can be actually removed so if you just remove this then it just looks like a black pocket journal so this is very simple and minimalistic journal and what I'll do I'll just you know do some writing testing on the pages and see whether you know there's any ink bleeding or how it feels to write and actually there's even a marker to you know keep track of where you left off the last time and then there's the rubber band to close it so that's another good feature so let's leave this here and let's do some testing of how this write so this is a ballpoint pen and I'll use a ink pen to write as well okay so the paper is a little bit thick it's not thin and because this is meant to be a sketchbook so that's I believe that's the reason of this paper but if you look on the other side of the paper there's absolutely no bleeding and due to being thick this can actually hold you can use any type of pen it looks like to write on it so some of the disadvantages of this journal is that you know you cannot there's no perforated paper and looks like it doesn't lie flat so if you try to you know lie flat on your anywhere then it just comes back to its original shape so it looks like you know this does not hold this way but in terms of size you can put it in your pocket this is a very pocket friendly journal and another good feature is that you know this is very low-price journal so you can use it you know without thinking of cost or anything so I paid about around five dollars Canadian so the price should be around that range depending on where you are but there shouldn't be too much differences than five dollars Canadian so one thing I noticed that you know the size the thickness of the notebook is a little bit you know it's not slim so it's going to take some space in your pocket in terms of the length here but in terms of the overall size which is only three by four inch so that should be fine but this is not a slim journal so it's a little bit on the fat side so whether you're going to use it as a sketchbook or notebook or travel journal or travel notebook it doesn't look like you know you can go wrong buying this because of its low price and just to let you know that this is not paid our affiliated review all my reviews are non-affiliated I'm biased and honest thank you for watching forget about subscribing this channel forget about liking this video there'll be more videos coming up and I'll see you shortly
