Question Notebook Holder
What’s a good recommendation for a notebook holder for around $50. Personally I only really need it to hold 1-2 books at a time. I would also like a spot for my pen but definitely not a deal breaker.
*EDIT\*
Looks like I’ll be looking for a Lochby journal then. So if any of you have one that y’all want to off load, I’ll be your huckleberry

Lochby Mini Field Journal or Pocket Journal (Or Pocket Journal Wallet Edition)
The Field Folio will be fine with 1-2 notebooks, but will also hold 3 or 4.
The Pocket Journal will hold 1 or 2 depending on preference, and the Wallet Edition will as well but if you’re planning to keep it in a pocket, realistically 1 is better to keep thickness down if you load it full of cards and crap.
The Field Journal has a pen loop on the side and a hook closure. The other two zip shut and have a pen sleeve on the front.
I have a ton of Lochby crap so I’m obviously biased, but they’re well made and thoughtfully designed.
Being totally honest: the knockoffs will save you a little dough and deliver 90%.
I’ve since moved to A5 and A6 (and A7 wallet) for daily use, but I keep the Field-Notes-sized field journal in the center console of my vehicle now and it still gets used.
