Tuff-Writer Pen: Express Yourself, Protect Yourself

The Tuff-Writer Precision Press pen was designed to be the toughest pen out there, designed to withstand high levels of abuse should they be pressed into the role of a self defense tool.

The Precision Press Pen is the ultimate clicky pen.  Entirely modular, each component is easily replaceable and made to last a lifetime. The metal body is machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum.

To ensure proper balance the tip is machined out of 303 Stainless Steel and very strong. The clip is pressed out of spring steel and coated for durability and corrosion resistance. It keeps the pen securely fastened and close at hand.

The pen also uses a spacer for allowing fitment of multiple cartridges (Fisher / Foray / Parker) and at its heart, a machined advancing mechanism with a two piece bearing-cam design for silky smooth operation. Removable contrasting black Duron o-rings assist in maintaining a positive grip on the pen when you need it most.

The design features a rounded end and sharply pointed tip, perfect for self-defense use. The pointed end is subtle to avoid attracting undesired attention, there are no aggressive sharp edges. The middle is  knurled for a positive grip, and pocket clip helps create a secure hold for an ice pick grip.

The actual writing cartridge is one of the famous “space pen” parts from Fisher Space Pen Company that is pressurized and will write upside down, underwater, or in just about any temperature range. The thixotropic ink is hermetically sealed  and pressurized to nearly 35 psi lasts three times longer than a standard ballpoint pen.

With an estimated shelf life of 100 years, the pen writes at altitudes up to 12,500 feet and with operating temperatures from -30 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (-35 to 120 degrees Celsius).

Tuff-Writer manufactures quality precision pens for everyday use but they are built tough to provide solid impact for self-defense situations. However, all models of pens are just that – pens – without the proper knowledge and training on the tactics required to use a tactical pen. Michael Janich, founder of Martial Blade Concepts, is an excellent instructor and utilizes techniques that almost everyone can pick up quickly. Explore the DVD options and find out how you too can be prepared to use a tactical pen for self protection.

Length: 5.13 inches
Weight: 1.0 oz
Material: 6061-T6 Aerospace Grade Aluminum (Stainless Version is 416 Stainless Steel)
Finish: Proprietary non-reflective / non-marking surface treatment and hard anodized to Mil-A-8625 “F” specifications

100% made in the USA, the Tuff Writer is constructed using state of the art machining and aerospace grade materials.

About Tuff-Writer in their own words:

There are a lot of other companies out there right now which make pens, flashlights and carabiners as accessories. Nice little anodized trinkets to complement their product line or extend their market reach in addition to their core competency.

At Tuff-Writer, we specialize in taking great design ideas and making them into amazing products. In fact, we firmly believe that we make the best American made, CNC precision machined, tactical pens on the market. Why? Because innovative design and precision machined excellence is our core competency. From concept to design through rapid prototyping, production and all the way to assembly, we understand precision manufacturing (just ask any of the people we’ve collaborated with).

Here at Tuff-Writer we understand that people often depend on their tools for their lives. That’s precisely why we make the world’s toughest pens and accessories. Before you buy a Tuff-Writer we spend literally months testing it, carrying it and generally abusing it.

That’s why through freezing cold, intense heat and the harshest conditions you’re likely to find yourself in, our products will prevail so that you can prevail. We think our pens are cooler than sharks with lasers.
