New Nitecore tactical Titanium pen
on: September 14, 2014, 10:05:03 AM
Nitecore NTP10 - it has a lot going for it like the custom Space Pen insert and I like it. But dislike it's US$120 price tag. It's ridiculously expensive for a mass-produced China made pen, IMO.

What do others think?

EDC and OCD. A wicked mix.

Is it mean for self defence?
Maybe save the money, throw $120 of bills at the attacker to distract him/her then run away...
Better than get in a fight with a pen.  :whistle:

Very true, Steve. :D

The holes on the body are a big no-no too. Why would I want to look at the refill? And it will soon be filled with pocket lint and stuff and look and bee dirty. ::)

Plus they look awfully like the Titaner Tactical pens or the 47s pens that were/are half or less the price. :whistle:

I am a fan of tacticool pens as it happens, especially if there Fisher compatible, but that really is way too pricy, and like others have said it'll look dirty in short order :(

Sent from the astropathic choir.

Give in, buy several Farmer's!!!!!!

I dislike the whole tactical pen concept.  If I'm going to carry a purpose-built weapon, it is going to be something a smurf of a lot more effective than a pen.

The holes in the side ruin it for me. :td:

You could fill a sock full of quarters for $20 and save a hundred.

Yeah, I agree. I don't dig these 'tactical' pens for their tactical use designation but usually for their looks, size and overall military-like appearance.

This pen from Nitecore simply doesn't do it for me, the more I look at it. It appears a piece of well machined Ti with some interesting features like fine tuning the internal refill chamber to size, nice and chunky Fisher pen refill with large, polished conical tip and removable glass-breaker but apart from that, nah, not for me.  :(

Don't talk like that about pens! They're mightier than swords!

I made mine into a mini lantern with a Nichia 219B-V1 and also made a carbon steel carry case for it. Still works as a pen too :tu:
