Now here’s a perfect holiday gift for a notebook addict, at least if they like Field Notes or similarly sized notebooks:

I thought it was a neat idea myself. Interestingly, the box happens to look very similar to the boxes readily available at my local tobacconist. I have refitted dozens of them for pens, playing cards, poker chips, and all sorts ephemera. The only difference I can discern is the company logo. A bit of slick marketing, perhaps? Not to disparage Field Notes, which I love – it just strikes me that the archival box is not different enough from its tobacco bretheren to justify the price difference.
Plus, some cigar humidifiers and pen cases look very similar . . .
