What is a tactical pen?

To put it simply, it’s a rugged pen, usually made from aluminium that both writes on paper and serves as a blunt spike weapon which is designed to inflict high impact strikes when used with a downward stabbing action (they are not designed to penetrate the flesh like knife, they just cause devastating impact strikes). They can also be used to break glass for emergency escape from vehicles etc.

Why should you get this Schrade survival tactical pen…

I’ll give you a number of reasons – the Schrade survival tactical pen is a very high quality item, the quality and detail is top rate. The pen feels very solid and capable of inflicting damage in self-defense, but it is not too heavy to write with day-to-day. The thing that makes this tactical pen different to all the others is it includes  a very, very, very loud whistle and a very effective ferro rod and striker (firestarter). The whole thing screws together very nicely, with a clever use of clockwise and anticlockwise threads. Note: the whistle isn’t that loud when still attached to the pen, remove the whistle (also the pen lid) and blow it and it is deafening…

I was dubious about this tactical pen as there is just so much going on, and I thought all the joints would weaken it, but I shouldn’t have been concerned, everything about this tactical pen inspires confidence and I highly recommend you get one.  It is a great option for everyday carry and handbags etc, or also to leave in your vehicle – it’s a self-deference weapon, a survival whistle, a survival firestarter, an emergency glass breaker and it looks great and even writes great. I can’t find anything bad to say about it, at just $25 it’s a bargain, it really is.
