The feature of this pen that I find to be excellent is the new design/look. Taylor Brands has toned down the tactical look of the pen. It falls more in the “Gray” area of life. The average person on the street isn’t going to look at the design and think anything of it. They are not going to identify that the pen is a weapon! Matter of fact, I’ve shown the red pen to 2 different females and they really liked it. Liked it enough to buy 2 of them for their own use – Both are professional, white-collar types!
The other feature that striking in its simplicity is that you are able to screw the cap on at BOTH ENDS of the pen. Why no one else has thought of this before now - I’ve no idea. LEO’s will love this feature! It allows the owner to use the pen as a weapon if it’s closed or if they are writing with it. You don’t have to worry about the cap popping off like the snap cap design Taylor did for the S&W M&P pen when you plunge it into someone’s suprascapular nerve area (not that I am recommending that type of use for the pen).
The fit, finish and anodizing is perfect and fits together nicely on the pens we have. Schrade states that the pen has type 3 hard anodizing. Excellent value for a pen that has a price point under $ 30.00!
Over all, they are a great deal for the price if you want a rugged, all metal, tough pen to EDC that won’t cost you a bunch of change and won’t set off alarm bells in the general public’s mind. Taylor Brands has a winner on their hands here!
