Thanks all for the comments.

Futural, I hope you will share some information about which pencils and stationery items are popular in Columbia.

A quality made notebook, when I was surfing the web learning about, I saw the Conteo as well as Whitelines® from Sweden http://www.whitelines.se/ Its pages are subdued in a very light grey with white lines -here the name- ooffering comfort to your vision for reading and writing, I´ll check if It´s truth but I think it´s a very imaginative item. Now, I am very excited because I just bought “My first Moleskine” It´s ruugged and looks well crsfted.I ask a teacher where did he buy it? for my sorprise here in Colombia, my country, I thought the cost of it would be 3 or 4 times more than the average price but It was well for a student like me.

This looks very appealing! I especially like the 4mm squares which seem to be almost like a standard in Switzerland – ELCO has a lot of items with that ruling too.

Looks like a nice notebook. I’d like to have some gridded paper like this for sketches. Maybe I will pick one up. Thanks :)

Nice thorough photo review of an item that I am not very likely to come across anytime soon. Good thing my collecting obsession is pretty much limited to pencils and their mechanical counterparts, otherwise I might be tempted to add this item to my hunting list. As it is I do enjoy sketching on fine grid paper from time to time, but I think a Rhodia pad would meet that creative itch for a fraction of what the Canteo might retail in the US.

Nota Bene has them. I'm not sure where else.

So where can an American ordering from Canada find said notebooks? I’ve been interested in Canteo for a while since I heard about them on another notebook website.

Looks pretty good. I just bought myself a few Moleskines. I had a large watercolor MS before, but now I’m going to be taking all of my class notes in Moleskines. It’s a bit expensive, but there is a great durability factor involved.

I find that the A3 size is unusable since it’s so big. For those types of paper, I’d rather work on single sheets.

I tried finding alternatives, but they only stocked Rhodia and a few other brands. The Moleskine had all of the features I wanted.
