Review on Leather Dragon Bound Journal 6X8 Notebook For Men DnD Book With Blank Pages Travel Writing (Brown) by Michael Boonme

Misread the description, expected something much larger in a 11x8.5" format, my bad. Paper seems of reasonable quality for what it is meant for. Otherwise, the "gem" is very cheesy plastic from what I can tell, and not even clear through and through. Front page was damaged by insides of the cover, both dye leakage and pressure imprints of leather lace work holding the "gem panel in place. Suggest the manufacturer includes some sort of liner or backing to inner front cover to prevent this. Locking latches appear to be cast plastic or some light pot metal material, but are properly placed and functional. Embossing of cover design in the leather is incomplete and fades in several areas due to insufficient pressure applied when embossing. Over all the product is mediocre in quality. Can not determine durability as I just got it. I would not gift this, I would not even purchase if better description and photos were available on item page. Anyway, these are my initial impressions ans observations of the item. Will not be returning it as I find returning items to be a hassle and not worth the time and effort for items like this.
