The Atomic Bear Stealth Pen Pro Tactical Pen for Self Defense - Enhanced Writing Survival Pen with Glass Breaker to Escape & Defend - Bonus Training to Protecting Yourself - Great Gift for Men

My previous martial arts training is no longer useful to me as I am now 86 years old and need to use a wheelchair whenever I go outside of my home. So, I looked for some alternative means for self protection. Having completed my research, I now use 4 lines of self defense that I have found practical and have attained to with an adequate level of proficiency. The four weapons of my choice are (1) Pom Pepper spray; (2) a Cane Masters tactical walking cane; (3) a security alarm with a blinding strobe light and (4) the Atomic Bear Stealth Pro tactical pen.The primary weapon that I depend upon is my tactical walking cane - it is a game changer even in the weaker hands of a trained senior citizen in a wheelchair. However, one should not put all of one's eggs in one basket. It is always best to carry more than one means of self protection.The Atomic Bear Stealth Pen Pro combines a useful and practical writing pen with the best features of a dynamic weapon needed for self defense. It is easy to use and the serrated tip can do a lot of damage to ward off an attacker. A scrape across the forehead with this tip is extremely painful and will cause the blood to flow down into his eyes making it difficult for him to see. Even a senior citizen can effectively use this tool if ones knows the weak pressure points of pain such as the eyes, ears, throat and groin.Overall, I am well pleased with the Atomic Bear Stealth Pen Pro and consider it to be the best tactical pen on the market.

I’m shocked how well it writes, it’s true to form. Great value

Great pen. Lived up to expectations

I've had several different tactical pens, but the main things I like about this one:1. It's not too bulky. This will fit in or on a pocket just fine.2. It's not too heavy, it's polymer so that definitely cuts down on some of the weight.3. I love the "bolt-action" feature mainly because it's much more functional than removing a cap, twisting (where it can twist in your pocket and get ink everywhere), etc. Also it sounds/looks cool.4. It has a heavy duty clip for your pocket and not one that breaks easy. I tend to be rough on things but this holds up very well.5. It actually writes pretty well, and the refills are standard and easy to find.6. It has everything you would want in a tactical pen.My one con is the rubber piece that covers the glass breaker can fall off and you can lose it - leaving a pointy end that can dig into you depending on where you keep this pin. It won't just fall off, but if you bump it on something or if it catches then it can fall off. Still though, not enough to cost it a star. I would highly recommend this to any other EDC guys like myself who value functionality.

The security team at our church uses and likes the standard Atomic Bear aluminum tactical pen. However, it's not something I'd try and take through a metal detecting security screening, and its sharp tip might damage clothing or even me accidentally. Thus, when this new model appeared, I figured I'd give it a try too.What's better: 1) It is a lot easier to use as a pen. Just click the bolt action pen actuator, and you are writing, rather than having to use a lot of body strength to pull off the pen cover and move it to the other end of the pen first. 2) It has a nicely ergonomic shape for actually writing. 3) It still has a carbide auto glass breaker tip, but nicely hidden under the rubber top cover, rather than waiting for a chance to stab anything near it.What's not better: 1) The writing tip has three very sharp prongs. Intended to grab a DNA sample of anyone stabbed with the pen, they may also stab something you didn't want stabbed, and might be noticed and confiscated at a security checkpoint. Fortunately, if that bothers anyone, they can easily be filed off. 2) The brand label is also non-removable, and might be recognized at a security checkpoint.I also very much like that this new model can use any of the Parker/Fisher/Schmidt refills. Since I prefer a wide tip, I immediately replaced the medium top refill provided with a Schmidt wide tip refill already on hand.Ironically, a local college (Chapman) recently gave me a near-perfect stealth tactical pen (see photo.) It's not as sturdy as either of the Atomic Bear pens, but does include a flashlight in its flat top, and has the same bolt action for pen operation. Sadly, it only takes cheap standard pen refills.Overall, I'm glad to have both this stealthier plastic tactical pen and the standard aluminum tactical pen.

Toughest pen I ever owned, seems indestructible,if the terminator had a pen this pen would be it.😎

I ended up returning this product because it was a little too bulky to my liking. However product didn’t have any other features or noticeable flaws that I didn’t like. Only problem for me was the bulkiness feeling.

I have traveled many countries and this is never a TSA problem. I pack it in the backpack along with other pens and a flashlight. When I hit the street I move it to my pocket.
