Benchmade 1100 Damasteel Series Tactical Pen

Pen-Ultimate

By Amos Kwon on 9.13.10

A pen can make a strong statement, not just by what it communicates in writing but by its appearance alone. Bic ballpoint = frugal and predictable, maybe an accountant. Uniball Roller = an analyst of some kind, very precise. LAMY Safari = artistic and original, perhaps a design architect. Montblanc = executive, makes big deals happen with aplomb. But what writing instrument should you carry if you don’t want to make a statement anyone would recognize? What if you prefer, instead, to always be prepared in an emergency, a real emergency? What if your philosophy is that every man should know how to protect himself and those he loves?

Then, your pen of choice would be a Benchmade 1100 Damasteel Series Tactical Pen ($250). Along with smooth, gravity defying writing from its Fisher Space Pen ink cartridge and its dark, stealthy looks and rippled damascus steel pattern, this pen can save your life if wielded properly. It goes where firearm, bowie knife, telescoping baton, nunchucks or unruly Doberman cannot go… the airport your pocket. The Agency taught us that a hardpoint can act as a self-defense tool (watch video), and the Benchmade Damasteel Series tactical pens easily more than suffice. With an ergonomic knurled barrel, it can be gripped with assurance, whether you’re nervously signing your marriage certificate with one end or calmly dispelling a crazed assailant with the other. So, at your next staff meeting, as you take notes, watch everyone else take note and ask you what the heck you’re writing with. And you can simply reply with, “I don’t like it when people ask me questions.” “Oh, it’s just a pen.”
