Fisher Space Pen Military Cap-O-Matic Pen, Black Ink, Gift Box

I really like these brass space pens. Better value than the chrome plated version IMO. I have two, use them daily. Comfortable, writes on most any surface, writes on vertical surfaces. Cartridges last quite a while.

Pen arrived too late for Christmas even though I ordered it the first of Dec. Overall the pen is exactly as pictured. It writes great and can write on a variety of surfaces. The quality is great- it’s heavier than I thought it would be. The size is a like a regular pen and fits nicely in my pocketbook.

These pens work great! Highly recommend...

Sturdy? Yes. Reliable? Yes. But I have two issues with this pen. 1) I hate the click mechanism because if you grip too high up the pen you will compress the spring while writing. Now, I don't always write like that but when I'm using a pen to quickly jot notes, sometimes I don't grip it as properly and so this becomes annoying. The click is also rather unsatisfying so if you wanna fidget with this pen your best bet is unscrewing and rescrewing the body of the pen, because the click is kinda disappointing. 2) I don't trust this pen. I have yet to have a leak in my pocket, but because of the nature of the design of this pen I'm worried it'll get clicked open when I put the pocket clip on my pants pocket and an hour later I'll discover a mess. I've yet to have that issue, but a traditional click pen design would seem more trustworthy. I don't like that the pocket clip is on the moving part of the pen. Overall? Solid pen. Has always written reliably when I need it. The body of the pen has a satisfying weight and the threads are neatly cut and it screws together very precisely. It's a rather small pen so if you have a big hands that might be an issue but if you want a small pen? This is a great inexpensive option. This has become my new edc pen and goes everywhere with me. I don't know if it's fair to call it a "tactical" pen because it doesn't have much grip and there's no fixed point to use for self defense, but I'm confident that the metal body of this pen is at least sturdy enough to push into someone's pressure point, should I be forced into a situation where I had to use it for self defense. But if you want a pen that definitely fit for self defense don't get this, but this might be better than defending yourself with your bare hands. All in all, a solidly built reliable pen.

Just got this in the mail today! I can’t speak of longevity of it . However I can give you my initial thoughts.. great presentation packaging! Upon opening the RAW BRASS pops , absolutely beautiful pen! I have it here in the video next to my solid brass zippo for “somewhat of a comparison” The construction of pen seems to be of great quality! Although it is a little lighter than I thought it would be .. not necessarily a bad thing . I would say weight is good! It screws on and off to get to the refill with no hesitation. Clicking the top part of pen does not feel mushy as some others have said .. I clicked it in my video and you can see and hear the responsiveness of it . Writes very nicely! No complaints here! I would buy again and recommend to a friend! I will update as I use it more! Please note I’m a truck driver / laborer and very very hard on my pens.. I will update!

Great high school graduation present

Bought three brass space pens, one for home, one for travel and one for at work. Selected brass because of articles about the bacteriostatic properties of copper surfaces, (brass is part copper), and working in healthcare it just seemed a good choice. The pens at home and work have been in use since purchase, (about a month), and are holding up fine. the action to extrude the tip is a bit different from conventional pens, using the barrel instead of a knob at the top. The action is super-easy --- a little too easy at first and always defies first time users who have been introduced to the pen. In an era where iPhones sell for +$1000 it is hilarious to see the reaction most people have to a $16.00 pen! The next reaction is to ask the price of the refills! This makes no sense to me when the price is negligible, especially compared to the utility and the quality. The only drawback so far is to find that the ink does smudge until dry. Lets see how long it takes to dry. Will report back after a few experiments. The only other drawback is that, at $16.00 the pen does hold a bit of aniety for possible loss at work, as we move around, respond to emergencies, are constantly being distracted by outside events like transports, putting out fires, doing spur-of-the-moment education, all in the middle of entering data. Had a few hear-losses already! But even so, the pen is so good it is worth it so far. At home, it is a real pleasure and in transit, it is also very handy in my backpack. Highly recommended.

I have been a fan of Fisher pens ever since they came out with pressurized ink cartridges for NASA. I still have one that I've somehow managed not to lose that I purchased decades ago when they first came out, which still works as well as ever. The new one was to replace another fairly recent one that I'd lost (which happens to most of my pens eventually). If you like to take notes or write on a sofa or in bed, they are terrific because they write at every angle that you might try are skip free and the ink seems to last almost forever. If you've ever tried to write on a piece of paper or journal laying down and holding it up to read, you'll know that normal pens require gravity to be in the "right direction" to work. (I also occasionally use one to mark lines on the ceiling, which I need to do every once in a while, when I move a light fixture or curtain track.) They are well made and usually not flashy if a bit expensive. If you can manage not to lose them or loan them out to someone, they seem to last forever. As to how easy they are to hold, it depends on the model. Some are a bit slippery, others are very easy to hold.

Great pen.

Ich bin schon Besitzer eines 40 Jahre alten AG7. Den hatte ich mit bei der Bundeswehr und ich muss sagen, der schreibt immer . Es gab kein Material, auf dem der nicht geschrieben hat, bei jedem Wetter. Leider hat er am Schaft wo die Verschraubung ist einen Riss bekommen. Jetzt kommt der Clou: Lebenslange Garantie! Gegoogelt und es gibt weltweit Vertragspartner. Habe den für Deutschland angerufen und man fragte mich nach dem Modell. AG7 sagte ich. Kein Problem, schicken sie und den defekten SpacePen und sie erhalten einen Neuen!!! Zuvor hatte ich mir aber schon den Space Pen M4 Gap O Matic hier gekauft. Der ist schlicht und gut verarbeitet. Aber der Knackpunkt ist: Der schreibt, wenn man ihn braucht. IMMER, solange die Mine voll ist. So Sätze wie: Booo Ey, der Sche..... Kuli schreibt wieder nicht, gibt es nicht mehr. Normal sollte man sie 10 Stück davon kaufen und überall einen liegen haben. So, viel Spaß damit

Le problème est que la circonférence du capuchon n'est pas ébavurée:elle est tranchante si on ne fait pas attention un vrai défaut de conception.

Fantastic service, arrived quick and safely. Perfect gift for my Dad's 70th birthday. My dad loved it. Thank you.

Serves the purpose
