Tactical Looking Pen?
on: July 28, 2010, 09:52:02 PM
How's it goin guys?

Planning on buying a new pen since I cant stand using cheap pens. I like quality and love using a Parker Jotter pen. It looks brilliant and performs very well. However I now want something cooler :)
The UZI Tactical Pen has caught my eye however there is one thing I'm concerned about: the tactical-ness. From September, I will be returning to school and the thought of taking a potentially harmful pen to school is quite unnerving. Before you think i'm some 10 year old who carries a SAK, I'll be 17 in October and never carry my SAK to school.
Would you guys still recommend a pen like this or do you have any other recommendations? Would a tactical pen be too heavy for usage like this? I've had a look at the Fisher Space Bullet pen and I don't think it's for me. I just like the look of a tactical pen but don''t really need it for tactical purposes.

Thanks it advance guys  :tu:

Both UZI pens feature the DNA catcher on top of the pen, with sharpish crenellations.

I would avoid taking this pen to school.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

I think I must not have said what I'm looking for right. Yeah its sorta messed up but like, I'm looking for something in the style of a tactical pen. If we take the UZI pen for example, it looks a lot different to a normal parker, but it can also be recognised as a weapon. If i was using it, someone might say to me:
"woah that pen looks sweet, are those ends sharp? is that a weapon?!"
But i want a pen that has the same design (perhaps this is a better word), but isn't a weapon, so someone might say
"woah that pen looks sweet" and leave it at that.

sorry for the confusion, my brain isn't working properly right now  :ahhh

if all else fails, i'll just buy the uzi pen  :P

 All SS steel body pen you can use  (like Parker Jotter), for self defence.

yeah looks like i have just confused everyone. forget everything i have said.

next question. would you recommend the uzi pen? I want to keep the price to a minimum. I think i might just buy the uzi and possibly a fisher space bullet. How comfortable is the bullet?

"French self-defence expert, Fred Perrin, long associated with high end knife design has, like many others, turned his expertise to the design and manufacture of pens."

 :rofl:

Sorry but this just seems like the word "tactical" added to things to make them cooler
