I have been using Fisher Space Pens since the '70s. Mainly the CH4 version which looks almost the same as the original one (AG7) used in space.The Fisher Space Pen PR Catridges all come with a small plastic adapter and can be used in Parker style ballpoint pens.The Fisher Space U Catridges fit all the multicolor pens.The Fisher Space C Catridges can be used with Cross type pens.The Fisher Space PS Catridges fit some of the Paper Mate type Pens.
Can anyone with multiple types of fisher space pens tell me which you prefer and why?
Hmm, does my picture show up for people? My older pictures stopped showing up and it seems it's due to Dropbox changing their service.
Did someone say patina

I might have to make something like that, maybe to hold a farmer or pioneer-x and also a pen? I'd have to do something else and maybe put a grommet on so it could hang rather then sit at the bottom of the pocket JR

Feels so good and is just getting better with age (all of them actually). Rides so nicely in he pocket too!
Have three bullet styles and have had one in my pocket since the 80s. The brass one was originally a burgundy lacquer. Picture with my Vagabond - (Image removed from quote.)*via Tapatalk
Are there any pens from other brands out there that are similar in size to the Fisher backpacker?
I'm really wanting the blue one, blueberry I think it's called.
Thank you! Quote from: Kevin Davey on April 06, 2017, 03:22:05 PMI'm really wanting the blue one, blueberry I think it's called. Do you already have one in another colour? What are you waiting for? I'm still wondering about the durability of these pens, as far as I can see, the only thing that could happen is that the cap gets loose? Will this pen last me as long as a SAK?

I have had mine for over 27 years, as long as you do not damage the o-ring with some type of solvent, you should not have any issues. My current EDC is my Black one, it was my 2nd purchase, early 90s or late 80s. Pocket carry with my Micra is causing some wear yet a lovely Patina I can enjoy. I do miss my brass model that originally was a dark red lacquer. (Image removed from quote.)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
