I purchased this paper to use with my set of Copic sketch markers, since it was advertised for use with such. As far as paper for Copics goes, its slightly better than your run of the mill marker paper however, it really isn't what I was expecting for something advertised for Copics.
The individual sheets themselves are very thick, and not as smooth as some other brands of marker papers I've tried. The really big issue is the absorbancy of the paper I love copics because of the ability to blend and mix colors, but this paper literally just falls apart after you apply a few layers of color. The paper fibers start to ball up and tear apart precisely what using a specialized marker paper is meant to avoid. It also affects the pigment of the inks in a bad way there is a strange darkening of colors that persists even after the work is dry.
In short, its okay for quick sketches or experiments, but don't expect to be able to layer and blend colors or get a high quality result from this paper.

Doesn't feather as badly as some papers as long as you don't overwork it and colors blend well with a smooth looking finish.Best Deals for Copic Markers 8.3" by 11.7-Inch Manga Nat White, 30 Sheets
It's smooth enough that it doesn't tear my felt-tip pens, but not too glossy to use mechanical pencils. It's absorbent enough to blend markers like Copics without streaks, yet not enough to allow bleed. It's not cardstock, but it has a nice solid weight, and feels like a presentation-quality paper. The fact that it comes in individual sheets (rather than a bound book, which can be quite annoying if you sell your originals) is just a bonus.I've tried a lot of different brands, and for my money, this is the best marker paper out there.
