I see such a pen at the local market, I wonder if it could be a Chinese counterfeit? Lately they have been copying small pocket knives, labeling them as Solingen, although this is clearly not GermanFisher made in Germany???
I can't even find any pics of it on the web now. I have had it for years. Maybe it was designed in Germany and made in USA?Fisher made in Germany???
Dude, that's awesome. Thanks for the link. I've always used the Zebra F-301 compact for EDC pocket carry, but I'm definitely checking that one out.I like the Zebra X-701 tactical pen. https://www.zebrapen.com/products/x-701-retractable-ballpoint

They were literally (that's Gen-X literally, not Zoomer ) half the price 6 years ago when I bought two on AMZ. Wish I'd have snagged 20 and "scalped" 18 of them!Yeah, those things are commanding lower-end Collector's dollars nowadays.
Are those gel??? It just says ballpoint on Amazon.Mitsubishi uni Power Tank 1.0. The pen carries a reference SN-220. They claim to work like a Fisher Space Pen and write in any situations. No build up on the tip. I bought a box of these off Amazon ages ago for not much money. I like these a lot and give them away to friends and family.
I have a Fisher but don't use it much as its too small for me.
I have used Parker Pens a lot but if you don't use it every day, it gums up.
I have a Cross - too fat for my hands or pockets.
I have a Waterman - just right but doesn't work in all conditions. It was a gift so doesn't leave the house.

I would assume that the variance in the empties would be enough to make the exercise not worth the time.By the way, has anyone checked the mass of the almost dead rod? If have a medical scale, can tell by the mass how much ink is left there in order to predict when need to be ready to change the refill. Similar to checking battery capacity
That's the thing, I'm a complete nerd for that aesthetic. I believe I posted a while back about a Robert Sonneman lamp that I rescued...It is rather well made. Worth $80-???? only depends if you buy American or love NASA/Soviet space programme.
