Business Binder Journal With Combination Lock A5, 9” X 6.7”, Excutive Diary With Passcode PU Leather Is A Refillable Leather Journal (Coffee Like)

After doing weeks worth of research on journals with a combination lock, I decided to buy this, even though some reviews said the combination lock broke within the first couple of uses. I have been using this since October (2 months) and it has been working like a charm! I HIGHLY recommend this journal to anyone looking for any type of journal. It's a perfect sized journal, comes with a very nice pen, has good interior pockets, the PU leather has a posh and comfortable feel to it, and the lock works well (just make sure you do exactly as the 4 step instructions say [which is very easy]). This journal will satisfy! If I had to leave a criticism it would be that the combination pad is off by about 5 degrees clockwise. Although I am a perfectionist, the 5 degree slant is not a bother or a hinderance. The lock works perfectly wellI didn't even see the flaw until just recently. Just an honest remark. This is a great journal that every journal-seeking person should get. 5 stars!

Actually, i think this is probably my best purchase ever. Not that i need an expensive, leather notebook or the thick quality papers that come with it, i just find this thing to be very practical. I have struggled many years putting important information in notebooks and found myself going crazy flipping through all the pages to find what i need, only to realize ten years later, that i have to transfer information to ten more notebooks because information keeps changing. With this notebook, i see myself using it for the next ten years. It's nice that the papers seem really thick and good quality, but i bought the notebook for the purpose of replacing papers as information/passwords, etc changes. Also, even though the leather isn't genuine, i don't care. The cover feels so nice and soft, like it's expensive. I feel this will last longer than ten years with good care. And one of my favorite part about this notebook is the lock. I don't feel safe if someone snoops around and finds all my passwords. The lock works well and i have no issue changing the codes. Overall, a very happy camper!

Even though it is not "real leather," this journal looks and feels "classy." Its binder-form with refillable pages is excellent, for me the perfect solution, and it does not have the odd shape of regular binders--pretty much looks like a "regular book." The color is truly portrayed on the Amazon page, something that doesn't always come through in pictures. A nice reddish brown I favor. One thing must be known--the size mentioned to the lower right of the picture is deceiving--It is the size of the A-5 6 hole binder-pages therein. with the soft-padded cover, the size is close to 9"x6.7" x 1.25" (the measurements under Product description/Technical details--scroll down are also a bit inaccurate, in this case larger than the actual size. So it is rather large and thick and definitely not "pocketable," but I think fine for serious journal writers. The tumbler lock is very nice, easy and a far cry from the flimsy "baby padlocks" and keys of many diaries that are a waste of time as one must "fight them off." From what I see, though it is not mentioned, A-5 - 5.7" x 8.25" six holes refills should fit-- (I am going to order one of them and will post an update) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H0NS7OG/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?encoding=UTF8&colid=1W5NTFL3RVLCA&coliid=I21KOZOLKVXTZU&psc=1 or http://www.amazon.com/dp/B016BCU1YU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1W5NTFL3RVLCA&coliid=IDVCORFXRHKIO&psc=1 The notebook filling that comes with it "Cagie lloose-leaf A5" cannot be found anywhere on the web. There are plenty of pages to start with--I think 100 sheets, i.e. 200 pages. A very good deal overall.

I usually don’t leave a review but this journal is perfect. From the attractiveness of the aesthetics to the durability and actual feel. I wish I could be more descriptive but reviews aren’t my thing. I have bought countless journals and this one is by far the best one so I had to talk about it.

The note book is of good quality for business travel what I did not expect was that the writing is in chinese including. The instructions for setting the combination but there was a helpful animation how to do it.

My wife got me this and I love it. I’ve seen these before but the locks are super cheap. This one locks nice and tight and feels really sturdy. I’d buy it

I think it's a beautiful diary and I've wanted a lock journal for ages. The paper is nice and thick and the cover is pretty and classic. The lock, unfortunately, won't unlock for me after a few days' use. Disappointing. I can't get into it at all.

This is a journal I will be using for the rest of my life. I LOVE the look but the fact that it's a binder just makes it that much better. I can buy more of the same paper for it and store away my old ones when it gets too full. It always makes me so happy to practice handwriting or do some personal mental work in 🥰
