Bolt Action Pen

Bolt Action Brass

Very solid construction. No pen wiggle at all. Two preferences however: the grip is a bit thick, and the brass gives of a strong smell. The slim seems to be a better idea and non-copper metals are a good choice if you don't want your hands to smell like spare change.

Totally functional for the 21st-century, I’ve already tried about 18 different types of refills.” i’m a free hand, graphic ink+pen=art illustrator. I use bold ink pen refills, medium, extra fine, micro fine in different colors of ink, from different ink pan makers, all using the same “big idea design” bolt action mechanical pencils & ink pens.

short answer is, I like it, but the refill compatibility is not as universal as the Ti Arto EDC. I 3D printed a ring to make more refills work with the pen but that kind of defeats the point of no mod refill compatibility. However, that very satisfying click on the bolt action makes the trade off acceptable. Would I buy it again if I were to lose this one? Probably not, but I do enjoy using it.
