Although renowned for the invention of the anti-gravity pen for space travellers the Fisher Space Pen also has proven track record here on earth. Due to its unique design and reputation for writing in extreme conditions the Space Pen has become the pen of choice for the United States air force, law enforcement agencies, undersea explorers, mountain climbing expeditions, ski and snowboard teams or anyone else demanding a high degree of reliability from the equipment they select.
First things first; What is a Fisher Space Pen ?
With it’s sealed, pressurized ink cartridge, the Space Pen will work in the freezing cold, the boiling heat, the gravity-free vacuum of Space. It is used on all manned Space Flights- American and Russian
Why So Special ?
All Fisher Space Pens write dependably in the zero-gravity vacuum of space, at any angle, upside down, over grease, even under water. The Space Pen will write in the freezing cold of -20°C and even in the blazing heat of 200°C. All are made in the USA
Why should I buy a Fisher Space Pen ?
The Space Pen is always a unique gift or present idea, so if you’re looking for a great gift then the Space Pen is definitely for you. Writes on almost anything and anywhere – not only functional but stylish to boot!
Who has used a Fisher Space Pen ?
The Fisher Space Pen was used by Ronald Reagan to sign the Proclamation inaugurating the Air and Space Bicentennial Year to celebrate Man’s first flight in a hot air balloon near Paris France
Fisher Space pens used on Apollo 7 after two years of testing by NASA
Used during 1997 Everest North Face Ski Expeditions
NASA’s Apollo Missions and Shuttle Missions
Russian Soyuz and MIR Space Flights
ARIANE French space program
The Bullet was the original Fisher Space Pen. This Fisher Space Pen is used today on all American and Russian manned Space Flights. Luckily, earthlings can also acquire a Fisher Space Pen of their own. The Fisher Space Pen is the most reliable writing instrument in the world. If you’re looking for a pen that writes anytime anywhere then a Fisher Space Pen is the pen you need, guaranteed.
Here is just a few reviews;
“….I recently bought a Fisher Space Pen around £20. How can I justify spending £20 on a pen? Well besides the cool name, the space pen is in a class of its own. All Fisher pens are characterized by their gas pressurized ink cartridges and thixotropic ink. Unlike a regular ballpoint or gel pen, these pens can write upside down, underwater, through grease and of course, in space. The ink dries instantaneously and is always armed, meaning no scribbling required to get the ink running. The bullet version of the Fisher Space Pen adds a unique compact design and a high quality finish. The finish I ordered was the 400BRC Bullet. Closed, the pen measures a bit under 4 inches but when open, the pen is a full-size, 5 and a half inch, perfectly weighted and balanced writing machine……”
“……Fisher Space Pen M4SB Cap-o-Matic Shiney Black. I found this smashing Fisher Space Pen at Swiss Knife and Tool for a very reasonable price just under £10.00, especially good value considering the model is carried on Amazon at around £15.00. Two things really sold me on the M4SB over a basic model: 1) the black matte finish is great looking, and 2) it has a clip. If I am going to purchase a compact pen for whatever use, a pen clip is almost mandatory. I don’t do well with a pen that just floats around in my pocket or backpack. I have to clip it to the notebook I am using, or to my shirt pocket, backpack pocket, or wherever. The clip on the M4SB does a great job. As you well know by now, looks don’t mean much without great writing performance, and this is where the Fisher Space Pen surprised me. I was worried about spending this much on a ballpoint pen and never using it, but this pen writes as well as any similar pen that I have tried. The black ink is especially dark for a ballpoint, and is extremely smooth. I enjoyed writing with this pen quite a bit……”
“…..The original Bullet Space Pen was conceived in July of 1948. Paul Fisher was soon machining a new pen design shaped from solid aluminum. It became the first Fisher ball point pen, the #400 Bullet Pen, is arguably the most popular pen of the twentieth century. This pen is now all brass with a Matte black finish.When closed, the Bullet Space Pen is the perfect size to carry in your wallet, pocket, purse, car glove box, organizer or toolbox. When open it’s a full sized, evenly balanced writing instrument. The patented ink cartridge was designed by Paul Fisher for NASA in the 1960’s enabling it to write in temperatures from -30 to +250 degrees Fahrenheit, under water, in zero gravity, at any angle, even upside down…..”
“….The design of the Fisher Space Pen is at once beautiful and functional. The Fisher Space Pen, when closed is a little shorter than my Cross Ion pen retracted. The Fisher Space Pen, when closed is short enough to keep in a pants front pocket. The Fisher Space Pen has the same diameter as a regular ballpoint pen. When the cap is taken off the Fisher Space Pen and placed on the back of the pen though, it becomes a full length pen that is very comfortable to write with. The Fisher Space Pen even has notches where the fingers are for those of us who perspire when writing for long periods of time.
My fiancée got me the original design Fisher Space Pen with a clip. It is an aluminum Fisher Space Pen with copper fittings that is chrome plated to make it very brilliant and shiny. I love the look of the Fisher Space Pen, you have to see it for yourself to appreciate the design of the pen. If chrome does not fit your taste the Fisher Space Pen comes in an assorted amount of colors. There should be a design and color for anyone! The Fisher Space Pen is stunningly beautiful with minimalist look.
Fisher Space Pen gift box. Click to go to our online Fischer Space Pen shopThe Fisher Space Pen itself ships in a heat pack type package. Inside the heat pack package is a single gift box (black) that has a felt like holder for the Fisher Space Pen. On the lid of the gift box is a felt insert that holds back an instruction booklet and Fisher Space Pen Refill form. The gift box is very classy with “Fisher Space Pen” on the top.
The Fisher Space Pen feels and sounds a bit gimmicky from all the stuff that is said about it. The name Fisher Space Pen is thrown around by those who have used the Fisher Space Pen and for good reason, it is a great pen! The Fisher Space Pen writes well and feels good while I am writing – and that is all that I can ask for in a nice pen. The warranty is great (unconditional lifetime warranty) and the build quality looks exceptional. This little Fisher Space Pen is a work of art that actually works when needed too. I recommend the Fisher Space Pen highly!….”
“…..I bought the Fisher Space Pen in a rush, I just wanted to have one! I’ll make it short: it’s an original Fisher Space Pen, so they can write virtually everywhere, which comes in handy when normal pens fail to do a good job, e.g. when it’s really cold or too wet. The design of the Fisher Space Pen is very nice, and often imitated according to Fisher. The Fisher Space Pen will last forever. I always carry it in the pocket of my jacket, and it does a good job when it’s raining or when it’s freezin’ cold. I give the Fisher Space Pen an excellent rating because of the indestructibility and reliability of it…..”
“……I bought the Fisher Space Pen last week and it is fantastic. If you’re debating whether or not to buy a Fisher Space Pen, just don’t think about it – get your credit card and buy a Fisher Space Pen now. OK, so you’re never gonna actually know whether the Fisher Space Pen works in space or not due to the fact you’re never gonna go. But the Fisher Space Pen is so stylish and elegant why use a crappy biro or parker when you could use a Fisher Space Pen? I use my Fisher Space Pen at work everyday and everyone keeps trying to borrow it and keep asking me where I bought the Fisher Space Pen. The Fisher Space Pen is packed full of features and can, for instance, be used underwater. But, I didn’t buy the Fisher Space Pen because it works in space or water but because the Fisher Space Pen is brilliant and comes with a lifetime guarantee and is leak proof. I mean Parker pens come with lifetime guarantees, but who’d want to keep one for a lifetime? Don’t think or even hesitate, trust me, buy the Fisher Space Pen now!….”
MORE INFO….
In the 1950’s there were dozens of ballpoint models, and nearly every one took a different cartridge. In 1953 Fisher invented the “Universal Refill” which could be used in most pens. It was a good seller, since stationery store owners could reduce their stock of assorted refills.
THE INVENTION of the FISHER SPACE PEN
Not content, Fisher continued to work on making a better refill. After much experimentation he perfected a refill using thixotropic ink-semisolid until the shearing action of the rolling ball liquefied it-that would flow only when needed. The cartridge was pressurized with nitrogen so that it didn’t rely on gravity to make it work. It was dependable in freezing cold and desert heat. It could also write underwater and upside down.
Fisher Space Pen is born
The trick was to have the ink flow when you wanted it to, and not to flow the rest of the time, a problem Fisher solved. Fisher’s development couldn’t have come at a more opportune time.
Space Pen wins the Space Race
The space race was on, and the astronauts involved in the Mercury and Gemini missions had been using pencils to take notes in space since standard ball points did not work in zero gravity. The Fisher cartridge did work in the weightlessness of outer space and the astronauts, beginning with the October, 1968 Apollo 7 mission began using the Fisher AG-7 Space Pen and cartridge developed in 1966.
Leatherman BLAST Tool Reviews, What the Professionals say.
June 7, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment
n recent times Leatherman seem to have concentrated on creating basic and minimalistic multi-tools. The onus being on weight saving and compactness, but in certain peoples opinion at the cost of tool functions; which is what the design is all about. When you consider the Skeletool and Freestyle, though the former has been a huge success for the company, in certain ways that approach holds water but it’s very much a case of horses for courses. In other words they’re building multi-tools to fill certain niches, not just punting out model after model with maybe one feature difference.
Comfortable
The Blast has been with us for some time and was the first multi to feature the Zytel handle inserts; I rate these highly as they really do give a comfortable grip when using the pliers. In fact it was the Blast that spawned others that followed that I’ve previously reviewed such as the Fuse and Kick.
Manufactured from 100% stainless steel the Blast has a closed length of 4”, 6 ¼” in pliers mode and weighs 6.9oz. Already, those that know their tools will realise that’s very light considering what it offers. Opening out the handles reveals the now familiar needlenose pliers, regular pliers, wire cutters, hard wire cutters and wire strippers. Also it’s the real deal when it comes to grip; as the handles are rated to withstand up to 175 lbs of pressure being exerted on them.
All other tools are accessed from the inside of the handles meaning this butterfly design has to be opened to select a tool, then closed again so it can be used in complete safety and security due to the full double handle grip it affords.
Functions include; 2 ¾” clip point knife, 2 ¾” wood saw, small bit driver, small and large screwdriver as well as a lanyard attachment ring. From the other handle emerge a 2 ½” wood/metal file, bottle/can opener, medium cross head screwdriver and a pair of sprung scissors. All lock out solidly and are returned by using the familiar rocker lever on the outer bottom edge of the handle.
—————————————————–
A little background on my multitool usage. I used to carry in my tackle box, a pair of pliers, a pair of scissors, a screwdriver with a interchangeable tip, and my knife. Lots of stuff, taking up lots of space but it was all stuff I was always glad to have. Then when I was about 13, I went fishing with my uncle. We caught a fish, and he pulls this thing off his belt flicks his wrist and out slide some pliers, Cool. I ask him to see his Gerber and he hands it to me, all sorts of cool little tools packed in the handle. I had to Have one.
I went through a lot of junk tools, and 10 years later I finally got a good one. The Leatherman Blast.
I researched this tool extensively and decided it was the one. For me the sliding feature of the gerber was no good, It would get gummed up and well the tools weren’t all that great. So it was a clear choice that a Leatherman was the right tool for me.
Usage.
I purchased this tool as something to have on me almost all day every day. I always am fixing things, out in the woods, or on the lake. So weight was a consideration. The Blast comes in at 6.9 oz. Pretty light considering its capabilities. If you want less weight, go with the wave, or a smaller light duty tool. I would consider the blast to be a Medium Duty tool. at about $50 its quite the deal.
Materials.
The blast comes in two finishes Black Oxide, or Stainless.
I really like the black one but I could not find it anywhere so I opted for the readily available Stainless version.
The handles have zytel inserts. These really increase the comfort when using the pliers or wire cutters on the tool. Some may think it cheapens it but it is a big upside to me.
The unit itself is built out of stainless steel, a MUST for those who will use this outdoors.
The Tools.
The blast boasts a 16 tool arsenal. Thats quite a bit in a 6.9 oz. package. However should you buy this, you won’t be pulling 16 tools out of the handle, some tools have multiple functions. I will go through these one by one. Please refer to the pictures above if you would like to see what any one part looks like.
The first tool is the file, its 2 sided, and set up to use on both metal and wood. As a little test, i cleaned up my knife blade worked great. It also has an abrasive edge on the bottom that I tested out by hacking through a small machine bolt. It took a little work but it got right through it.
Next we have the Bottle Opener/Can Opener/Wire Stripper combo. The can opener worked fine for what it is. The bottle Opener works really well, much better than some dedicated bottle openers I have. Great for popping open the brews at the campsite. The wire stripper however, Not sure how to use it so if anyone knows please post it in the comments. I perfer to just use the wire cutter to strip wire.
The Phillips Head Driver. This is AWESOME compared to most Non-Leatherman branded tools. The shank is very long on it, allowing you to get to screws that are not flush with the surface of whatever you are working on.
The last tool in this side of the handle is the Scissors. Scissors are AWESOME to have. You may think well whats the point you have a knife. True, but for tasks where control and accuracy of cut are key, the scissors will win every time. They are also great for cutting braided fishing line cleanly.
First thing you come to on the other handle is a lanyard ring. I don’t use it but some might like it, that’s all there is to that.
The Saw I used it when setting up my deer stand to clear branches out of my view and cutting through a branch of about 1-1/2″ diameter the saw dominated it. Very sharp and very sturdy.
Next up – The small bit driver. I wear glasses, This was a huge selling point. I always have screws coming loose in them. Also fishing reels often have an assortment of small screws. It is a double sided bit, both phillips and straight that is held in by a spring tensioner. It works perfect on glasses and battery compartment screws.
On to the Medium Flat Driver and the Large Flat Driver. Again like the phillips, the medium driver is very long shanked, perfect for hard to reach screws. The flat driver however is more like one you would find in any other tool, kind of stubby.
Last tool in this handle – The Knife. VERY sharp from the factory which is awesome. It has a clip point and is made of 420HC Steel. Perfect for utility uses. Heck, I used to to skin a squirrel last week since I didn’t bring my other knife out in the woods with me and I didn’t want to walk back inside to get it. SHARP SHARP high quality knife.
Finally the plier head, and all its gadgets. Standard MultiTool type head, with regular plier jaws and needle nose pliers. Awesome for getting fish hooks out, twisting wire and any other normal needle nose functions.
The wire cutters are also awesome, It has a two in one function, a large area for regular wire, and a hard wire cutter at the base. The hard wire cutter snaps off finish nails with no ill effects to the steel and the regular wire cutters are great as well. If you need to snap barbed wire regularly, or 16 penny nails, go with the leatherman supertool 300. It has replaceable carbide cutters.
Conclusion.
I know this may seem long winded, but its my first blogged review, comment and tell me what you would like to see more or less of. All in all I think this is THE perfect Medium Duty MultiTool for you to have on you as an Every Day Carry (EDC) item. Its light weight, comes with a nice leather belt holster, and has more functions than almost any tool in its class.

“………Well, what can I say about this magnificent torch, with 6 D size batteries it can be quite hefty, but it does make a difference. It easily reaches the end of my 2 acre field at spot beam. It has to be one of the best torches I’ve ever bought, with brilliant aluminium build quality and not to mention it’s self defence capabilities! I find the torch sits well in the hand with the balance point about 2 inches behind the switch, which can be a bit annoying at times I must admit and in the winter months it does get extremely cold handling bare metal, but that’s what gloves were invented for! The quality of the beam (spot and flood) is outstanding and greatly outweighs the negatives I find. Excellent choice for DIY as well………”
“….. The 6 cell maglite is just great, very secure when holding and great luminosity. the item is not too heavy and as we know can be a deterrent when confronted unexpectedly. good product ………”
“…….. Does what it says on the label! If your a Maglite fan(I am) it’s a great torch. Delivered on time without any fuss. Oh and does double as a cosh of sorts
………”
CRKT – Columbia River Knife and Tool. Some Now Made In Far East – Good or Bad ?
May 26, 2011 by admin · Leave a Comment
CRKT, like most USA brands of knife and tools, to include Leatherman, despite their recent heavy advertisement about OREGON and PROUD, more like CHINA and CHEAP(ER), have some or all of their lines made in the far east
Anyway, I, personally am warming to Chinese goods (quality wise), yes you still get let’s face it rubbish from there but you get what you pay for. I get to see lots of far eastern tools and knives and the quality now matches and in some cases surpasses what the USA and Europe can/could produce, so from mt point of view (apart from political implications) buying a tool or knife made in China is not a bad thing at all, providing you get the right brand
CRKT come to mind, they were one of the first big USA manufacturers to go east and they get the quality right, that’s why we stock them.
Here’s what CRKT have to say (the last piece about “for those who serve” gets a laugh - let’s hope USA never goes to war with China or the USA will be using Chinese weapons to fight the Chinese)
“…Quality, innovation, value. We’ve built our reputation on creating innovative, top quality knife products, priced very competitively. CRKT works with some of the world’s leading knife designers, and we offer the largest number of exciting new knife designs in our history. CRKT offers Sport & Work knives, I.D. Works™ Tools and knives built “For Those Who Serve”…”
Here is a list of our current CRKT stock;
CRKT Slip KISS 2 (2.375″ Blade) Razor Edge Pocket Knife 5565A
CRKT Slip KISS 2 (2.375″ Blade) Razor Edge Pocket Knife w/ Multi Colour Scale 5565-CRKT

FISHER SPACE PENS…..UMHH…Take a Look

Fisher Space Pens….sounds like a gimmick…but they are what they say on the tin (or on the pen in this case). They are used in Space, they really are! NASA, ESA anmd even the Russians have used them (in Space)
We use them, they write upside down, on anything and just versatile, like the good old Land Rover if you like
They are Made in the USA, OK the Americans make some junk over there (ever driven a US made Chrysler …my advice, DON’T…EVER) but the Fisher Space Pens are a good deal from America, they are not too expensive and are a rugged well manufactured product
