Off-Grid Knives BOLT Tactical Pen with Tungsten Carbide Glass Breaker, Overbuilt Bolt Action XL Writing Tool, Aircraft Aluminum, German Ink, Stainless Steel Clip (Camo Green)

Writes well. Gets through security…including European screening.

Been using it a month now. It's pricey, but the quality is there and smooth writing ink cartridges (comes with a spare), nice it comes with a spare. I have the green one. I'll see how long it takes before the color starts to rub off. I like that the pocket clip allows for deep carrying. I don't understand why some people complain about the size as it's not much bigger that other tactical pens (although a smaller one would be nice as well. I also haven't had a problem with mine where the glass breaker or pen portion was out of alignment. I also appreciate that it was designed to look less tactical and is unobtrusive. So far, my only issue and it's small is that the stud for engagement is brass colored. If it was black or matched the color of the pen's barrel, it would be perfect.

I really like this pen, feels heavy and like it will last a long time. I work in at an ice cream production facility and it works while I’m in the freezer doing inventory without any issues. The only thing that prevents me from giving 5 stars is that, granted it’s a work pen, but the finish has started to wear off after a month.

Pen writes well and the glass breaker works. My only complaint is the glass breaker points out a little, it has not been a issue but it would have nice if did not.

I purchased this pen a month ago and it does not disappoint. The bolt action is fun to fidget with as well as incredibly smooth. The fancy German ink used in the pen writes with grace and ease. Also, the knob on my pen came out (it unscrews, so be careful) and when I reached out to customer service they responded almost immediately and sent me a whole new pen at expedited speeds. Customer service deserves an extra three stars. Pen is fantastic. If you are used to regular sized pens and would like to keep that size go with the small bolt pen not the XL. But if you are happy with some heft get the XL, I enjoy it quite a bit.

Edit: clip stinks. Lost it 2 days later. Must have fallen out of my pocket when i squat down. Have never had that happen before. The clip was pretty loose holding. Unfortunately thats it for this pen.Think of a pen. Then make it a little fat. Make it window stabby. This is that pen. Its a lil chunky but not too. Perfect for writing. Ive never had a better pen. I immediately changed the ink to blue from the same ink maker. I dont like black ink. Blue is nice. Perfect pen. Did i mention this IS the perfect pen. Yeah. Cool. Cause it is. No thinky think. Just buy.

Update: 5 stars for customer service and outreach. In their defense, this is the "XL" version of the pen. Off-Grid is known to make XL sized knives and tools. And they make trimmed down counterparts. When the non-XL version comes out, I will be sure to give it a try.When I hold this pen, the grip is not intuitive. With the glass breaker tip deployed, the pen should be long enough so that my hands do not go near the glass.However, it should be short enough for control for hammer strikes.Pros: not too heavy yet substantial and sturdy. Great styling and thickness.-3 stars due toCons: 1.Due to spring strengths, the tungsten tip sticks out a bit at rest. 2. There is tip RATTLE when writing. 3. The length of the pen could be shorter. The pocket clip dip where the pinky should go is at the wrong place. Shorten the pen by 1/2~1/4 inch and it should be golden. Should be ok for giant Nephilim hands.For comparison, look at a different tactical pen. This pen’s pinky groove is too high. Should be lower. But, it is more comfortable to hold than the Off Grid.

This pen is sturdy! Not to mention it writes super smooth. Almost TOO smooth. The bolt action is aslo fun to play with. Unfortunately I lost mine while working and I'm sure someone out there is very excited about finding this pen. Will be purchasing another one.
