Time to buy my first pen

In developing countries, you can have solid gold brand name pens for $1. Rolex watches go for $14.95.
By the way, the gold wash rubs off these authentic pens and watches after their first couple of weeks of use.

Tactile Turn Bolt Action Pen. Machined from any number of solid metals (copper, zirconium, titanium, bronze, etc) uses multiple types of inserts to include the G2 gel, and in a pinch can be rammed through someone’s skull! Had mine for three years now and love it, plus the copper is naturally anti microbial for you germophobes.

To each is own. I was raised that if it’s something you need or use daily, pay for quality and do it once. While my pen doesn’t work better than a free hotel pen, I like it, it wasn’t expensive(ish) and I’ll have it forever.

That was on the final decision list. Loved that it’s made in the USA and machined. In the end went with ZIEBA only because it was a bit lighter and smaller tube to the tactile turn. He also allowed a bit of customization and engraving after talking to him on the phone.

This is funny, but untrue. Also the space pen guy developed it with his own money, not with a huge bloated govt contract as so often accompanies the story.

Good evening Mr. Wick.
I know of your previous fondness for the pencil varietals, but I can wholeheartedly endorse the new breed of pens. The new Bolt Action Pens in Titanium. And Copper.
Smooth grip. Ink refills for easier reloading. And I know you'll appreciate the custom engraving.

Pilot G3 awesome but clips break in a day
Space pens too fat and messy ink
Cross pens too expensive, you will lose them.
Zebra $3, all stainless, fits in flight suit, refillable, ink won’t smudge. Has some heft.
Personally I want a pilot G3 pen with a steel clip but no existe..........
