That's looking good, Pabs!

Here are mine. The bullet is carried everyday loose in pocket. Both Zebra F-701s have been modified with a metal nock from the F -402 and have space pen refills. The middle one I carry at work since it's much easier to use a clicky quickly, and they don't allow capped pens in the labs.

The zebra on the right I just got Friday. Found it on sale in a store, so I picked it up to use the extra 402 nock (those pens come in two packs) so now I have a back up. I need to get a fine refill, as it has the leftover medium refill originally from the bullet. I may try blue this time.
:cheers: Thanks.

Your pens are very nice too!  :tu:
Chrome and black are nice colours.  :tu:
I think shiny brass is, well, too shiny.  :P
I don’t want my pen to draw attention! :D
If it wasn’t for the assurance of getting the patina, I wouldn’t have gotten it.

I quite like the patina brass gets. It's very  :drool: Your pen looks great already :tu:

One thing I like about the bullet in black is that it will show wear with time, like the brass will. The stainless pens don't look so much worn, as just scratched up...

Attached are pics of my bullet in with its color matching edc and a Pic of the only raw brass I have, my zippo pipe lighter (that thing is hard to photograph well, not the best pic at all)
If the trees blew down the wind and no one was around, would the alphabet song really go backwards?

They're relatively cheap and a refill costs €0.50...

Hahahaha.   :facepalm:
I threw (yes, threw :P ) my pen in the grass and now I can't find it.  :facepalm: :rofl:

There you are, solid proof of my stupidity.  ::)

No more space pens for me.  :twak: That sounds like an appropriate punishment for me.

The problem with a zebra... I can break like 4 of them for the price of one fisher bullet. The temptation to break them would too strong!  :ahhh

I'm a die-hard Fisher fan. I've used them everywhere and they just keep on working.




The gold retractable is probably 30 years old, give or take a year or so. It is my favorite.

The black one is great and has been on many adventures. Not as nice as the gold one, but works and works, and work and works.......

I don't really know. I would assume anything that happened in a relatively short time period could be polished out.  :dunno:

Can I join the Space Pen club? :D

First photo is my usual front pocket pen. Space Pen bought in 2012. Still using the same ink tank after 6 years. :ahhh
The second, third, and fourth photos are of a shuttle bullet model. Given to me by an old flame for my birthday in 2011. She gave some of the best gifts(oh, how I miss her. But, I digress).
The little gold shuttle is a nice touch on the polished chrome.

Unless you drop it in the grass. Which would be -1.

Why not mow the grass Pabs? There'll be a crunching grinding sound* when you find yours ... :rofl:
