True North Engraved Padfolio
His name over a compass rose, for the son setting his own course.
- His name in bold Roman capitals above an engraved compass rose
- An optional line under the compass for a motto or his class year
- Zips around three sides, with a lined notepad and a tall pocket inside
- Rawhide or Gray engraved in deep black, or Black engraved in silver
Graduation is when he starts finding his own way, and this is the padfolio he takes with him. His name runs across the top in strong capitals, a detailed compass rose points north beneath it, and the line underneath carries the words you want him to remember.
Pick a motto he will be proud to set on a conference table, like Find your true north, Do hard things well or Trust your journey. Or keep it simple with his school year, like Class of 2027 or MBA, Class of 2027. Leave the line blank and the name and compass move down, so the cover still looks balanced.
It is a thoughtful graduation gift for a son heading into his first job, finishing grad school or starting a new chapter, and it looks right at home in an interview or a meeting.

- Choose a cover color: Rawhide, Black or Gray.
- Name: his name, engraved in capital letters. Up to 24 characters.
