The medium Blackwing Slate is an A5 hardcover notebook that is a bit wider than a standard notebook (148 x 210 mm). It features 160 pages of 100 GSM ivory paper that is perfect for graphite or ink. 

Every Slate notebook features the lay-flat binding, matte cover, and pencil holster that comes loaded with a Blackwing pencil. This Slate is available in blank or dot-grid paper.

• The matte cover is leather-like, but is not leather.
• There is an elastic band to hold the notebook closed when not in use.
• AND this notebook has a pencil holster that comes loaded with a Blackwing 602 firm graphite pencil!
