It's still possible to find the older Kokuyo Systemic covers, which are pretty slim in profile.
Taobao has many options, but a lot of their B5 stuff is faux leather and styled for the corporate office.
You can also always make your own covers. Lots of tutorials on that on youtube. I've been thinking of making some hard bookcloth notebook covers.

Baron Fig makes a B5 hardcover, the Confidant Plus. It is 7" x 10" (178mm x 254mm). It's very nice but I'd like to find a nice leather cover for it. https://www.baronfig.com/pages/confidant

You can order a custom leather cover from Renaissance Art in New Mexico. You pick the leather from a selection, give them the dimensions of the notebook, and they'll do the rest. I've purchased a number of them over the last couple of years. Large basic book cover (up to 7X10) base price is 59.00. These will last a lifetime and have an unconditional warranty. Pictured is one of mine.

Most recently, my favorite notebook is the Midori MD modified A4, which is slightly smaller than a full size A4. It also offers several cover options, including plastic, sturdy paper, and even goat leather.

zbozI really like Midori MD covers I use both the A5 plastic and cardboard covers, and I pretty much 'ogled' the leather cover but at over $70...

KnomadYeah I think I will too, even though the one I had custom-made for my notebook cost almost half this.

For general note taking and journaling, I prefer a Rhodia Webbie which have replaced my old general-purpose, government-issue steno pads. I am used to the old 6x8 steno pads, and find the Webbies are very similarly sized, but with vastly superior paper that I do not need to dump several dollars worth of Washi tape, glue, and PostIt Notes to make work.
For notes that I am going to rip the pages out and stick in one of my binders, I prefer A5 sized paper. I just do not use a B5-sized notepad very much. I do use quite a few 3x5 notepads. In the Rangers, we used Rite in the Rain pads almost exclusively. Now that I am retired, I have fallen in love with the refillable Lihit Lab pads. Thankfully, the Lihit Lab pads fit into my old Rite in the Rain nylon covers.
I still use several Rite in the Rain zipper-closure nylon covers for notepads and small journals. Might give them a look for covers as well. I use quite a few of the Rite in the Rain 7x5 and 6x9 nylon covers for my notebooks and steno pads.

@Theroc I recognize @Liz ... However I don't know @Knomad. I wonder if If he/she would be interested in @AllegoryGoods I have considered getting my hands on some leather and tools ... I learned how to work with leather in my University days.... Wondering if I might take a shot at making one. I had a friend sew a fabric cover that is easy to refill standard 8 1/2 x 11 bagasse perforated notebooks I bumped into onlne :) . It is pretty darn good paper for everyday use, notes and scribbles. But, it sounds like some folks would really be interested in the @AllegoryGoods B5 leather journal covers. I'll have to look for your friend Knomad in future posts :)

Good Morning @Theroc - I was eager to watch the news about the hurricane this morning. It was headed toward my hometown where I have many friends and family. Will be anxiously waiting to hear how they weathered the storm. Your post was a good distraction... Started my morning with a :)
Love the cover you had made. It is almost identical to the one my friend made... (mine is red bandana print with black trim) I decided against pockets on the cover because I thought it would make a bump that would affect writing on the left page. Have you found that to be a problem or no ? The pen pockets on your cover look nice and flat.
I also have a canvas one for a standard graph composition book. I use it for drawing out wood projects. It's taken a beating in the garage. Actually it is nice that it is cloth because I can toss it in the wash.
I'll have to show you a couple pen wraps that were sewn for me :)
I would think most folks like @Liz @Knomad and yourself probably wouldn't use a nice @AllegoryGoods B5 leather cover in the garage to get full of sawdust and dirt.

j-e-gOh, wow. That grazing path is monstrous. I hope this beast veers off into the Atlantic where it came from.
Wish your family and friends best of luck.
I had already used the first dozen pages or so, when I got the cover. So the pockets weren't an issue. I went with cloth purely for variety, I even had one made out of paper. Leather is still the most gratifying, though.

What has happened to MassDrop?
I have been gone about two years and return to find a completely a different shopping experience. Even though Spring is upon us...I can count ALL the outdoor items on less than my 10 fingers. Is this the norm now from Drop? Thanks

X-mid 1p tent available for France
Hello, my question is very simple: when will the Dan Durston X-mid 1p tent be available for France? I know this must have already been discussed and I know I can order it via Amazon.com but it is not the easiest (and cheapest) way to get it. Please, make it available! Don't let me beg you! ;-) Hope to hear from you soon with good news. Pierre

I bought a Glycine GL0187 and got it about a week ago.
The dial in the picture of the Glycine GL0187 on drop.com is black. The dial on the one i received looks 2/3 faded greyish and the bottom more black. I know it's not, but the dial has the water damaged look. It's not nice and pretty anoying. Any comments?

Completely surprised by the lack of blade diversity here on Drop...
I’ve been a collector of Blades since before my teens, and a retailer coming up on 15… or maybe 20 years. Drop has really been kind of an interesting experience for me, because I do occasionally get to see some unusual tech and sometimes EDC items that otherwise I might not have been aware of. And maybe it’s because I have a deep love of cutlery and bladed weapons, but I find myself trolling through the site looking at it what’s available; and it’s just it’s pretty much the same. And the bladed community here is just always confused me.. every single knife is about the same, they’re almost all drop points and although the handle materials change and brands change.. it’s really just the same knife over and over and over again... occasionally you’ll see a tanto or a slight variant; but rarely… and almost never a serrated blade. And I’m just deeply amazed at this diversion of serrated blades. And I’m just surprised there isn’t more of a request for diversity here.... and I...

Can we get Sony E-Mount or other mirrorless camera options please..
Would be nice to see some Sony E mount full frame cameras on here. I currently shoot with a A99 and they killed the lense path for better or more option lenses and now is all E-Mount. 🤔

There Are Pandas, and Then There Are Pandas.
And this isn't either of them! The Pandas we're talking about here, are watches, not bears. And what got me thinking about them (again) was a link posted this morning by @cm.rook who pointed a few of us to the very attractive (and not terribly priced) Yema "Rallygraph" Panda which, in it's most traditional arrangement, looks like the one on the left, but can also be had in the version on the right: The model on the left is a true Panda, while the model on the right is called a reverse Panda. The reason for that distinction is clear--Panda bears, only come in the first arrangement. Now at this point, everyone should be thinking about the most well-know Panda, The Rolex Panda, which is actually a Daytona, and among Rolex Daytonas, the most famous of which is the Paul Newman Daytona, which was famous first, because it was Paul's, and second because it sold at auction for $17.8 million (US Dollars). The story of that auction is well-known so I'll only...
