10 Best Bolt Action Pen in 2020 for Writing & Self-Defense

    5 / 5 ( 2 votes )

    If you thought that technology has made pens irrelevant, think again. Perhaps, for instance, you carry a pen for when a great idea occurs to you. After all, you never know when a fantastic idea will spring from your subconscious, right?

    This could describe a whole array of individuals, ranging from a creative writer to a physicist. And when such an idea occurs your EDC (everyday carry) pen is there for you.

    And, of course, everyone wants a good-looking pen, no? A pen that will make your coworkers jealous. There are, in reality, various factors to consider.

    Some of the factors we will consider are functionality, price, and elegance. As far as functionality goes, we consider some pens that can break glass, enabling you to escape a car in an emergency. And also the tactical use of Self-Defense, when someone attacks you in close quarters.

    As GearMoose puts it, “The best EDC pen, by design, can also serve as your last line of defense should your attacker find you unarmed and unprepared.”

    Hopefully, you never need either of these features, however, it is better to have them and not need them than to need them and not have them, right?

    And we have done the research for you. So, let’s dive right in.

    Why are Bolt-Action Pens Popular

    Bolt action pens, in fact, became so popular that Popular Mechanics declared that they were the ‘most badass way to write’ in the 2016 article “A DIY Bolt-Action Pen Is the Most Badass Way to Write”.

    Yet obviously purchasing a pen rather than crafting one is a more practical choice for the majority of you.

    As far as usage goes, we have discussed pens with multiple uses including breaking glass and Self-Defense.

    For example, if you and your loved ones are ever trapped in a car, the glass breaking feature of a bolt action tactical pen such as the Bastion Luxury Bolt Action or Boker Plus 09BO079 Micarta will come in handy.

    And it is always good to be prepared since we never know when an emergency will strike. And we better be prepared when it does, no? As Ben Franklin put it, “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”

    The same goes for using a tactical pen as Self-Defense. As avid hunter and firearms enthusiast Sean Holt points out in the USA Carry article “How Tactical Pens Could Save Your Life” points out, “in a close-quarters environment, a tactical pen actually has several advantages that items like knives or melee weapons would lack.”

    One such advantage is breaking chokes. It’s amazing when you think about it: your wise selection of a pen may literally be a matter of life or death.

    Factors to Consider When Buying the Best Bolt Action Pen

    And, in reality, there are various factors to consider when buying an EDC bolt action pen. The most important include functionality, price, and elegance.

    Price

    As for price, we all have a budget, right? With that consideration, the Design Gifts Rifle Bullet Pen is definitely worth your consideration.

    Its durability coupled with features like a rifle pocket clip and a gunmetal plate finish distinguish this pen from others.

    Style

    As for elegance, who doesn’t want a good-looking pen?

    And the elegance of a Bastion Bolt Action or the less expensive BASTION Luxury Executive Bolt-Action Ballpoint Pen. Both great choices.

    Design

    Lastly, however, pen selection is a personal choice, and you should list which factors most to you. If you, for example, do a lot of paperwork, you may prefer the comfortable grip of a Boker Plus 09BO079 Micarta Tactical Pen.

    In the final analysis, it may all seem like a lot to take in, but there are all quality knives that you can not go wrong with. However, we prefer the Design Gifts Rifle Bullet Pen.

    It, after all, is good-looking, inexpensive, durable, and well-liked by customers. And for these reasons, we consider it the best bolt action pen. That said, it does not feature the tactical capabilities that some of the pens have.

    But just how effective can a tactical pen be?

    As Phil Elmore points out in a Personal Defense World article, “A sturdy metal pen can be jammed into an attacker’s eye or throat. Or even jammed with great force into the chest, arm or the top of the hand to create a reaction. That reaction can range from a moment’s opening for a follow-up punch or kick to completely neutralizing the attack.”

    As brutal as this may sound, in a dangerous encounter an assailant must be incapacitated as a matter of survival.

    Making the Decision

    All that said, hopefully, you will not be in such a dangerous situation. In contrast, you can use your bolt action pen to complete that paperwork. hope this article has helped guide you in the right direction. Do a bit more research and buy the best bolt action pen you can find. An elegant and attractive pen that you can get years of reliable use from.
