Origin-Joy 1 Pack Stainless Steel Bolt Action Pen Set, Heavy Duty EDC Pocket Gel Tactical Pen With 4 Ballpoint Refills (Sandblasting)

I bought this because I was tired of pen clips breaking off. The bolt action was a curiosity more than anything, as was the "tactical" nature. To be honest, it's probably not the absolute best in any particular category, but it is hands down one of the nicest overall pens I've ever owned. It's heavy compared to an all plastic pen, but not too heavy - it's a good weight. It's all metal, so it's been durable so far. The bolt action works well, though it's a little gritty for my taste. It's very comfortable to hold and use. I like the fine line and smooth writing, though I prefer the Sharpie gel pens for ink flow. For the price it's a much better pen than I expected, we'll see how it holds up over time and dealing with refills. I don't know that I'll ever use it in a tactical manner, so your mileage may vary on that aspect.

I have a couple more expensive machined aluminum pens that I love, but wanted something I could carry and not have a stroke if I lost it. This pen is beefy and a bit heavy, so if you don’t like that you probably wont like this chonker. I don’t mind a weighty pen, so this was okay by me. The supplied ink was really finicky for my taste, I tried another included refill and it worked much better, but I preferred G2 refills so I replaced it with a G2 and it writes beautifully. (In fairness, this thing is supplied with 5 refills, and they don’t seem bad, so thats a nice pro for this pen.) I used to carry a Zebra F750 and it was great, but the joint between the two halves was plastic and prone to breakage. This bad boy is solid steel (or whatever) and it’s not going to break under normal use. The bolt action works well, however mine is a little gritty feeling. It functions as designed, it doesn’t get stuck or feel wonky or cheap, so I’m thinking it with smooth out over time. This is a good pen for the price. It looks much more expensive than it is, it writes well enough with supplied extra ink, and the body is built like a tank. I’m hoping the mechanicals hold up over time - they seem robust and I see no readon they wouldn’t, but at $13, this thing is a great value.

The Origin-Joy Stainless Steel Bolt Action Pen is a pretty good everyday carry pen, especially for the price. It has a nice weight to it and feels sturdy in the hand without being uncomfortable to write with. The bolt action is smooth and satisfying, and it gives the pen a cool, tactical feel. It writes cleanly and consistently, though it is not the absolute smoothest pen on the planet. The build quality seems reliable enough for daily use, pockets, bags, and work environments. Overall it is a well-made, good-looking pen that does its job well without needing to be perfect. If you want something durable and a bit more interesting than a regular pen, this is a solid pick.

Great hefty pen. Indestructible. Only one issue I had was that the bolt action was catching metal against metal. Just a drop of engine oil made the bolt glide effortlessly. A great pen and comes with many refills and it's supposed to accept G2 refills although i have not tried this yet.

This pen is SOLID! I love a heavy pen though. I know lots of people like light weight pens but this one weighs, probably, twice what a regular pen weighs. To me….. weight equals quality. I hope it does anyway. One thing I would change… I wish it wasn’t a gel pen. I like ballpoint pens better than gel pens. I guess I’ll just try to find ballpoint refills. Anyway…. I think it’s safe to recommend this pen. It’s solid and fun to write with.

I really like this pen, the heavy weight makes it feel high quality, the finish is nice, and the "clicker" is fun. That being said, I cannot recommend this pen to anyone who plans on using it intensively. I got this pen mainly for school, as an engineering major, the thing just cannot cope with constant writing. After 30 minutes to an hour this pen just cannot hold up, it stays dry and is entirely unusable. I wonder if the ink cartridges are just cheap/low quality? I'm not sure, I've used this pen for awhile and have yet to replace the cartridge(its still full of ink). This isn't a good thing, I wish the pen tip would hold more ink for a longer period of time, or better dispense the ink onto tip(ball point maybe) not sure, either way it's a great pen if you don't actually use it much.

A hefty bolt action pen that feels great to write with.

I move around a ton at work and finding a pen that won't break in my pocket or be pressed while I do my job was difficult. This pen open when I actually mean to open it and can drop it without working about someone stepping on it. I love it.
