This video is a comparison of the classic, iconic Black n' Red hardcover notebook ( http://amzn.to/2n5kIOu ) with the newer Black n' Red softcover business journal ( http://amzn.to/2n5mvDm ). Basically, the hardcover is larger and has a stiff, bound cover while the softcover is small, has a floppy cover, and is stitch bound. Both are fine notebooks, but the hardcover has an archival quality while the softcover strikes me as something you'd use every day. I'd also point out that the hardcover is considerable CHEAPER than the softcover: it's just $7 on Amazon right now where the softcover is $14. Even if you don't love Black n Red notebooks, that's a great deal. Here are some details: Hardcover: http://amzn.to/2nk80x0 Size: 11.75 x 8.25 inches Paper: 24-lb.
