Self Defense Tactical EDC Pen, Car Window Glass Breaker, Emergency & Survival Military Pens For All Weather With 2 Ink cartridges, Cool Gadget for Men and Women

Looks great like any expensive pen, but certainly doesn't feel like one, as it is much more sturdy with additional weight. I have little doubt that this pen would not be questioned at most gated security areas. The point is sharp and the pen cap unscrews and has an o-ring, so it cannot fall off, which is an essential feature for me, as I clip this pen on my pants pocket and know it will still be there if I need it. The top has a thumb indention which is another necessity for me. Some have points at the top which will certainly be painful if breaking a car window in a rescue situation. The pen also has an indentation in the clip, which I did not expect to be useful, but it makes gripping the pen tightly much more comfortable and study. I'm ordering another now to keep in my truck. Unless you are just trying to be "cool", this is the pen for you.

Compact and easy to conceal. Hope I don’t need to use it but it’s ready and will be effective

I carry this tactical pen with me everywhere. I use it for safety, self defense and to write with. My only complaint is when the cap is removed to use the pen, it won’t attach to opposite end so I need to hold onto it while I write.

Feels solid. Like the flat top to put your thumb on. Hope I never need it

Well crafted product! Lightweight but strong. I carry it in my pocket every day, always prepared.

This review is for this streamlined looking silver / titanium pen. Was reading some of the other reviews and honestly I don't understand them. This cap screws on which is very good compared to the other ones that pop on and off and then the little o-ring breaks. What's the o-ring brakes on the other pens it's kind of worthless The other pens I just leave them in my pocket but don't write with them because for one it's going to break and the ink cartridge is horrible this exact pan screws on so it lasts and it writes beautifully first tactical pen that actually writes good and I got mine into the arena very unassuming. I saw another review that says slippery but actually the top of this pen has a flat cap for you put your thumb for strikes You do have to realize no matter what you stab somebody with is going to be slippery so you need a flat back to hold it so it doesn't slide. So things to look for in a pen durable way to open and close it. Flat back for your thumb otherwise your hand will slide all over the place and cut yourself or flat top cap whatever you want to call it and a good writing cartridge I can actually write with this one and use it at work Of course the first time I let a customer hold it he dropped it on the ballpoint tip. Wtf. Needless to say he found out how it works after that 😂

One of the biggest reasons for purchasing this pen is for its "under the radar" appearance - meaning that you should be able to carry this with you everywhere without attracting suspicion or curious looks. Most other tactical pens have that "mall ninja tacticool LARPer" look - this one doesn't.However, for an EDC item, the mere fact that the pen cap does not post (i.e. attach to the end when using it to write) moves this pen from "under the radar" to "on the radar." In its standard carry configuration, the cap is screwed on and thus protects the ink end, leaving the tungsten carbide tip exposed. In this configuration, from even just a few feet away, it looks like a normal pen. If, however, you were in public and needed to sign something, you could not simply remove the cap and post it on the end over the tungsten carbide tip - you would in fact have to leave that tip exposed. Most normal pens do not look like that, and the inability to conceal that "look" would make most people do a second take and realize that you are using a tactical pen. Not only that, you now have the (albeit "first world") problem of having to deal with the pen cap. Simply placing it on the writing surface would make most people on some level go "Hmmm...why doesn't he just put that cap on the end of his pen like most people? Oh, wait, that's not a pen, that's...that's a MALL-NINJA LARPer!!!"That's my biggest gripe about this pen. As far as writing goes, without the posted pen cap, the pen is just long enough to fit comfortably in my hands. The ink cartridge writes well (comparable to your standard Bic ballpoint pen), and your order comes with two cartridges - one in the pen and one spare in the box. The shape of the pen makes it comfortable to hold, and the weight is just right - not too heavy, not too light - just enough heft to balance out the smoothness so that the pen doesn't slip and roll in your fingers as you're writing. The clip is removable if that's how you want to roll. The pen cap itself screws onto the pen side, which I think is a nice touch for two reasons: 1) fancy fountain pens have caps that screw on, so having to unscrew the cap makes people think you have an expensive, fancy pen; and 2) if you are using it in a tactical sense, the cap is unlikely to pop off and cause the pen end to stab into your hands.As much as I would love to test out the glass breaker on my neighbor's teenage son's hoopdy Honda Civic with a spoiler, I'm not going to, nor am I going to attempt to bust up some scrap wood or anything. Upon simply holding it and eyeballing it, you can tell that it is a quality piece of work. All of the parts fit together perfectly - there's no wiggling or looseness about it.Let's be real - the odds of you needing to use this as a glass breaker or as a self-defense tool are extremely low, but the odds of you using this as a pen are pretty much 100%. If you use this pen in public, you absolutely will expose to the world that you have a tactical pen, which eliminates one of the largest selling points of this pen, that of flying "under the radar."Atomic Bear - if you can make a Rebel 2.0 in which the pen cap posts, I will buy it for myself, as gifts for others, and recommend it highly to others. But for now, in its current configuration, it is not effective.If the pen cap would post, this would have 5 stars because it would truly be an EDC "under the radar" pen. But if I can only use it as a pen in private, then that removes a good part of its utility. Quality, craftsmanship, etc. are all top notch. But IMHO, an EDC tactical pen needs to be under the radar in all situations, public and private, hence the 3 stars.

The pen comes in really nice packaging with one ink cartridge in the pen and a second one in the box. The pen is made of of Steel and on one end is a Tungsten Carbide point, apparently it's for busting through windows. I haven't had the chance to test it out, but I am sure this would also make a excellent stabbing weapon. At least within its limitations. In order to write with this pen, you have to unscrew the cap so you can write. The tungsten tip is always exposed. The pen has good half without it being too heavy. And it looks pretty slick too. The only thing I didn't like is that it could use a bit more texture on the grip area. The pocket clip is very sturdy. They perform as well even rite in the rain notepads, with the ink cartridges that it comes with. Very premium looking and feeling pen for not a lot of money. I have no doubt that the tungsten tip would have no problems going through windows or Perforating the skin of an attacker.
