Boker Plus Multi Purpose Pen

I dislike 'tactical' looking products as a rule. They often send the wrong message, and too the wrong people. Not this pen. Well designed and tough enough without looking too tacticool. I have been through several tactical pens over the years, this one could be close to the second best. They dont make the best I found anymore, so buy this one. Oh, and as stated in another review, a drop of 'medium strength' thread lock on the breaker cap helps. Its too easy to work loose.

This is a good quality pen, excellent value and good positive materials, which have held out well over the last 4 years. I was given this as a Christmas Present to replace to cheaper pen that fell apart after a couple pf months of use, and I have been impressed with its size and weight, it's shape and the contouring and glass breaker. I have only changed the ink twice, I have carried this in 5 different countries and enjoyed being able to use it, with people complimenting me on what a beautiful pen it is. glass breaker is fine, may need gluing back in, but I have never had a problem with it, and some lockthread works perfectly for other things so will be great for that to i would imagine. i great buy, i highly recommend it.

First order ever from HH. Incredibly fast service, well packaged, good communication, frankly faultless service. A shining example of customer service to other companies. As to the product, well the pen is substantial and quite weighty which I really like, works well as a pen, and gives a real feeling of being capable of fulfilling its multi purpose, although thankfully I haven't used it to smash a car window yet.

Good pen, as good as most short of massive $$$, writes ok, if anything thats the minus point, but a change to a fischer or Parker refill makes it a sweet deal. Comfortable in the hand. Use superglue/ thread locker when you put the window breaker tip in. It seems as though it would fail out otherwise. Had mine over 20 months ,some scratching but everything else is fine and only just changed refill.

Have several tac pens and this one is one of the better ones, looks good and not to aggressive appearance . Writes well especially with Fisher refill and comfortable enough to hold. Only slight issue and probably a one off is that the glass breaker fell out! HH service great as usual.

An update to my earlier post. Today the pen failed. It's ran out of ink. Although i don't write reams of paperwork, it has been in daily use for 6 months. It's been dropped and stood on, rattled around the floor of moving vehicles, haven't driven 3 tonnes over it yet but certain it will survive. No issues with the threaded body design, and putting the cap on or off. Haven't used the window breaker yet which is a good thing. Now to get a new ink cartridge and hopefully another 6 months of daily use.

Due to fleet and PDA changes been looking for something to tap away at a screen with, write notes and as a bonus open windows in a hurry. Wanted the blue version but out of stock so opted for Grey/Gunmetal. The Boker is smaller than imagined, nice weight, but still easy to spot when dropped, glad i didn't get black. Still a discreet looking pen. Packaging as expected via other reviews and a nice touch. The stylus end works on the Galaxy Note4 , bit hit and miss when using the armoured Otter Box case seems to be a knack to angle of attack and pressure on the armoured screen. Pens writes lovely on paper and a bonus of excellent writing on skin (back of hand/arm/forehead). The top does lock onto the stylus end. Haven't tried the glass breaker yet and hopefully never will. We carry a window breaker in the rear of vehicles, but it's possible the driver may need fast access to one, possible events of having to escape our own vehicle or having to pop a window and drag someone from a burning vehicle at RTC's it's always on you, a replaceable Tungsten Carbide end cap would be nice but at the pens price point just buy another. Should survive being dropped and stood on better than normal pens, and dragging a stretcher or parking 3 tons of Ambulance on top of the Boker MPP :) Only had it a short time and so impressed may well buy a Blue one when they come back in stock. Also next day delivery from HH, excellent service, and neat Multi Purpose Pen.

So I ordered from HH yesterday. In under 24 hours, it was with me. Classic HH top quality service. The pen is a little weird. I'm starting with that because I think it could well become frustrating over time. The lid is normal threading, so you have to turn it one way. The bottom is reverse threaded. So if you keep turning the lid on to tighten it up to it's limit, you end up unscrewing the bottom of the pen, as if you're looking to change the ink. This is weird and will take a little time getting used to. I don't get why there is this design feature. That aside, it's well built, solid, light weight, and looks good. If you have a short temper or get frustrated over silly things, this might not be a good pen to buy. Also if you're used to doing up pens nice and tight, you might want to avoid this one. For the money, it's still good value.

Should have been obvious when looking at it, but if in a pocket the tip of the lid protrudes a little distance and the glass breaker can catch / scratch stuff it brushes against. Writes very nicely and feels sturdy. Lost a few of the threads the first time I changed the cartridge, but that might have been my clumsiness.
