The SE-Y7B is the Grayish Blue colourway in the Basic series — a muted, dusty blue that sits closer to slate than sky, with a quiet, considered character that works as naturally in a studio or office as it does in the field. The fabric-on-paper cover gives it a soft, tactile finish while maintaining the structural rigidity that makes it functional under real working conditions. It has earned the 2015 Good Design Long Life Design Award, a recognition reserved for products that have remained essentially unchanged and continuously relevant across decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe 3mm grid is printed in light gray — fine enough to guide writing and diagramming precisely, and unobtrusive enough to recede behind handwriting on the page. The high-grade neutral paper handles pencils, ballpoints, gel pens, and light fountain pen use comfortably with minimal bleed-through or feathering. Saddle-stitched and compact at 160 × 91 mm, it slips into a coat pocket, a field bag, or the front slot of almost any notebook cover. A note on the cover: colour transfer to other surfaces may occur due to friction — worth keeping in mind when carrying alongside lighter-coloured items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFabric-on-paper hard cover in Grayish Blue — firm writing surface for one-handed, standing use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e3mm grid printed in light gray — precise and unobtrusive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e40 sheets of high-grade neutral paper — 80 sheets of writing surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSaddle-stitch binding — opens fully flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eInner paper dimensions: 160 × 91 mm | Outer dimensions: 95 × 165 × 6 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eCompact enough for a coat pocket or field bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWinner of the 2015 Good Design Long Life Design Award\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shopnoteworthy.ca\/collections\/kokuyo\" title=\"Kokuyo items\"\u003eSee all Kokuyo items\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Noteworthy Stationery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43328584908867,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/4338\/files\/Kokuyo_Sketch_SE-Y7B_1.jpg?v=1780160150","url":"https:\/\/shopnoteworthy.com\/products\/kokuyo-field-sketchbook-grayish-blue-se-y7b","provider":"Noteworthy Stationery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
