For practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last. Not for antiques that have survived the ages but can no longer be acquired.

I'm looking for notebooks that I can have with me pretty much always. I've had a few TBIs and my memory is all kinds of messed up.

I'm looking for notebooks that I can use to easily catalog notes, and solutions to problems and such. I need them to be tough because I do a lot of outdoor stuff for fun and for work. I work on cars for fun, I go hiking, and kayaking, and I work with petroleum and the environment and so on.

I guess I need them to be a decent size but not too big, because I think I'll have to carry a few to separate work from hobbies, from day to day stuff.

Any ideas?

I haven't really used any other brands to compare with, but I've been very happy with my Leuchtturm1917 notebooks. Come in many different sizes, I like to keep my pocket one in my bag at all times.

I especially like their dotted style paper, perfect for sketching out system diagrams, plotting graphs, and working through geometric problems like vector math. All my main uses for it as an engineer.
