Filofax Personal Black Ruler (B133609)

This is surprisingly useful for those of us who have returned from the land of electronic calendars to paper in books. Recent research has borne out that physically writing certain types of info on paper increases one's level of comprehension. Once you do that, adding small tools to facilitate the process helps you return the efficiency lost to e-calendars. This little item helps you quickly find current week, allows you to have ruler immediately available, helps you draw straight lines, read along lines of numbers or text and more. In other words, it returns some of the utility lost to older ways when going electronic. Fits Personal size calendars perfectly, markings are visible, and it's rugged enough put up with use. Who would guess there was so much to say about a little piece of tough plastic.?

Thick and durable! Fits perfectly in my Filofax personal and I know it'll last me forever. Really good value for the money and helps me organize my life and not fumble through the pages to find the current date.

I would have rated this ruler a 5 except the description said that it only measured centimeters. I know I’m supposed to be reviewing the actual product, but an accurate description would have been helpful. I reluctantly purchased this ruler, thinking it did not have measurement in inches, which is what I wanted, so I thought I was settling after spending WAY too much time searching for an alternative. I have the transparent version of this ruler and it only has centimeters, no inches so this black ruler was a pleasant surprise. I’m very happy with it but I wish I would not have had to spend so much time looking for something else when this was exactly what I needed.

Five in one package, my cup runneth over. Great to mark important dates or certain weeks in my planner. I used them to easily get to certain days of the week in the beginning but after a while I realized they were adding too much thickness and causing perforations to then pages I was writing on. But I love love these simple bookmarks and use them constantly now, just not all stacked into one shirt time period.

Fits well in Kate spade planner. Feels durable and easily movable. I’m happy with the black color.

Exactly what I wanted, it was a replacement for an older one. Yes, I still like to use a paper calendar, I am that old.

I like that the imperial and metric rulers are on either side; however the material is flimsy and it’s missing “Today” at the top.

It's cute and works

Easy to clip in value for cost

Over priced and flimsy.

As indicated, it took very long to ship (about a month). Overall, I've been very disappointed with Filofax quality, their items are very flimsy and thin, not substantial. I guess they could be ok, but nowhere near quality products and this is no exception, I'm surprised how Filofax is so popular. I regret not getting the clear version because this is just a block covers more than a 1/3 of a page and doesn't work that well as a bookmark considering it's a hassle to take on and off too. After just receiving it, it's already bent and scratched fro trying to put it in my agenda. If you just want a ruler this is good but as a bookmark, no. I'll keep them but the concept is not for me at all.
