Any of you guys into tactical pens? I have a few and really like them. Strong, sturdy and most of mine take all the popular refills. My collection consists of: Mont Blanc Starwalker, Benchmade 1100, Archangle polymer body, Tom Anderson Twister, modded Zebra 701 (Now takes gel insert from a Zebra 301), and a cheap Foray from Office Max that is super nice!

This Surefire is built like a tank, love it.

scarhead · 29 October 2010, 08:32 AM

I never knew such pens existed. I mean I have seen them on the websites for some of the companies mentioned, but I just assumed they were regular pens. I think I may benefit from a tactical pen given my line of work.

Cool...

Deep Sea · 12 November 2010, 12:16 PM

Look up Rick Hinderer tactical pens...made in both titanium and aluminum. Among law enforcement folks, these pens are very popular.

nowzen · 12 November 2010, 12:52 PM

guess the mods are sleeping...

Cool, I didn't know there was such a thing as 'Tactical Pens'

What are their qualities that distinguish them as 'tactical' in nature

PS: I don't see anything wrong with a folded leatherman.

Tactical pens are reinforced pens suitable for puncturing humans.

Thanks, I was wondering what a tactical pen was

They look very cool

Btw, a standard Bic or even a chopstick will puncture a human

Not necessarily as any pen will do that, but they are better for hitting pressure points and useful for certain martial arts disciplines. Pointed tips break through car windows fairly easily as well.

Nifty stuff, I didn't even know "Tactical Pens" existed.

daveathall · 13 November 2010, 06:31 AM

The Surefire has got a windscreen breaker, must admit that it is not a facility I have used on a regular basis. I posted the photo above (post 2) because I think all three are superb examples of stunning American design and manufacture.

I've just watched a u tube video , it's a stealth weapon !!!

Can you use Fisher Space Pen refills with the SF pens?

Dont know.

Got this snippet of info from the site where I purchased the pen.

The SureFire Pen comes standard with a high-performance Schmidt® Technology easyFLOW ink cartridge, which is all about performance, but the pen is fully adjustable too; you can use nearly any ink cartridge (between 3.875 and 4.25 in long) with a simple adjustment. Smooth writing performance, elegant yet bold design, and it breaks glass in an emergency.

Kokyuryoku · 13 November 2010, 11:26 AM

That's interesting information Dave, thanks

I really want one now. They seem very practical. They're kind of like the Rolex of pens strong and can take a beating, but keep on writing

Lion · 13 November 2010, 02:41 PM

Geez.....I'll have to put that SureFire pen on my Christmas list a long with one of their flashlights!!!

Lol-x · 13 November 2010, 11:21 PM

There is an Uzi Mk.2 tactical pen in black.
It is aluminium and takes Fischer refills.
Seems like good value

sparkhill · 4 December 2010, 05:53 PM

I never knew such a thing existed. And now I want one.

Check Amazon

Lion · 5 December 2010, 08:41 AM

I don't like dealing with Amazon is there another source for buying the Uzi and Smith and Wesson pens???

nickriebe · 6 December 2010, 02:53 PM

Here is my collection of "Tactical Pens"... enjoy! Surefire, Benchmade (x2) and a Rick Hinderer. Always get compliments on them. They all use the fisher space pen refills.

Lion · 7 December 2010, 02:24 AM

Nick, I like you pens and Christmas is right around the corner.....Hmmm!!!

Lion, I highly recommend the surefire. Writes very well and feels really nice in the hand. Not as "bulky" as the others...

incon · 7 December 2010, 12:32 PM

Countycomm has a nice stainless pen. Little on the heavy side but the o-rings are cool.

Trev · 7 December 2010, 01:00 PM

Just picked up an Uzi model with tactical crown. Had no idea these things existed.
