The HON planner with a hardcover book design, hence it's called "HON" meaning a book in Japanese. 

This series was created to make you feel like you’re carrying around a favorite book and take it out at any time to make notes. A5 size features a page per day with a 3.7mm grid layout, the size of a square grid that is easy to write on after years of research. The book opens flat without the need for you to hold down the pages to keep the book open. This is achieved with thread-stitch binding, a bookbinding method that involves sewing and binding the book with thread. You’ll be impressed when you experience for yourself what it feels like to open the book and write in it so easily.

The HON has two attached bookmarks—so you can mark your place in frequently used pages. An A5 pencil board with a pen holder exclusively comes with the HON series. Paper material is durable and thin Tomoe River S paper and its thread-bound book with a lay-flat design makes it easy to write.
