Most interesting pen I've ever used.
This is easily the most excited I've ever been to receive a pen. It's quite honestly even smaller than I expected. The length was right around what I expected it to be, but it is shockingly thin compared to how it looks in pictures. I didn't buy this pen because it can write in zero gravity, under water, upside down, through grease, and in extreme temperatures (both hot and cold), but I'd be lying if I said I didn't find it cool. What I bought it for was by far the form factor. You really do not feel this pen in your pocket. As far as build goes, it's solid. I'm not sure which metal (though I'm inclined to believe it's brass), but the whole body is metal and feels super sturdy without being heavy at all. Now, the meat and potatoes, how does it write? Well, I've been carrying Zebra pens for years and I'm glad to say this feels smoother and the thickness of the ink looks more pleasing. Unfortunately, it won't make you write any better if you're one of those people who nobody but yourself can read your handwriting (like I am). It's a little silly how much I absolutely love this pen, but I don't see myself buying another pen any time soon, unless I lose it somehow. That said, if I decide I miss clipping a pen to my shirt pocket, maybe I'll pick up one of their cap-o-matic pens and carry both!I've attached some size comparison images of this pen (closed and open) beside a Zebra F-402 pen, a standard Bic lighter, a tube of Carmex chap stick, and a Sandisk Extreme USB 3 flash drive.

Fantastic Sub-Compact
If you want a completely, unfailingly reliable pen that is small enough to fit in your pocket, you are looking at the correct product. I actually purchased two, this matte black one (my favorite) that I keep with me throughout the day and a silver one that stays on my bedside.I've dropped both pens countless times with absolutely no ill effect. I've thrown them in the freezer for an hour and still written with them. Through the washer and dryer, still writes. The ink dries exceptionally fast. It has a good weight. It's very small, but when uncapped and recapped on the back, it is a full length pen, so as not awkward to write with. The only thing I have a SLIGHT issue with is, as other reviewers have said, the lack of clip or something to keep the pen from rolling around when you sit it down on a flat surface. I really didn't think this would bother me until it fell off my night stand a few times.Pro:Very reliableGood weightCompact to full sized pen.Extremely durableCon:Rolls around on flat surfaces

Best Pocket Pen I've Found
These are awesome! I have known about the Fisher Space Pen for most of my life, and mostly as a trivia question. I've worked various jobs with varying dress codes. When my place of work switched from suit and tie to khakis and polo shirts, this left the perennial question as to where you put your pen. No problem, we had the obligatory lanyard for photo ID. When I left and became a contractor, I lost that photo ID.If anyone has watched the WKRP episode about the suits vs. the dungarees, I tend to side with the "dungarees" so when in my own employ I wear jeans. The problem with jeans is that there's no pen pocket, or so I thought. The problem is that most pens are made wrong. I found the Fisher "bullet" pen at the Fort Campbell BX and have been in love with it ever since.When closed, it's the perfect shape and size to fit in the bottom of the back pocket of jeans and other pants (trousers) with stitched-on pockets or hanging pockets with a flat (level) bottom. When opened, the cap fits snugly to make a solid full-length writing pen that's as good as any regular pen in feel and grip. The "writes in space" part is a bonus, but the ability to write in any position may be a big plus for some. The o-ring seal also keeps water out, so it makes a pretty handy "survival" pen to keep in the zipper pocket of your backpack; that's where my second one lives.

Great Pen for a traveler
I tend to travel and work abroad a lot and this pen although small is truly mighty. All kidding a side, the pen writes extremely well and the ink does not smear like others do when I write in the rain in my field books(I know should be using pencil). The pen is relatively small and compact wich is great if you have limited space to carry your day to day stuff. I highly recommend getting the attachment clip for the pen if ti does not already have it.Pros:-Size for traveling-fits in a pocket easily-waterproof(ie will not fail if it gets wet unlike others)-able to write upside down, although this has no bearing on meCons-size(I have lost two)-some may find the pen to small even with the cap on it-mine came with a black ink cartridge and medium point, I like blue and fine points which was easily fixed. Would be nice to have the option when ordering.Overall decent pen that is perfect for the traveller or expat among us who has a limited space when traveling and wants a decent pen to be able to write with.
