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 Black Titanium Nitride 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.

Fisher Bullet Space Pen

Excellent pen especially if you want a compact pen that writes anywhere and anytime you need it to and only when you want it to write (no leaks at high temperatures, high or low altitudes and works well in low temperatures).

Don't buy the black titanium nitride one! (The chrome is great)

I purchased both the CHROME & BLACK TITANIUM NITRIDE (BTN) Fisher Bullet Space Pens.

The BTN finished pen was a huge & I mean huge disappointment!! I paid $32 for this pen. As soon as you touch it, it smudges & leaves unslightly marks & fingerprints. I wiped it down & handled it again with the same results. It is a serious smudge magnet. It totally detracts from the "cool factor" of this little pen. On the other hand, the chrome one is fantastic. You can buy 2 for the price of the BTN. See below for the review of the Chrome Bullet Pen.

(The following review is for the CHROME Fisher Bullet Space Pen)

A lot has already been written about the Fisher Space Pen & I hope this is not redundant. But here goes...

I love this pen for several reasons...

IT'S SMALL. Small enough to stash away in the front zippered compartment of my cellphone case. My phone goes everywhere I go, so my pen comes along for the ride ensuring that I always have a pen on me no matter what.

IT'S COOL! The Fisher Space Pen is not just a pen. It's a novelty item. It's sleek & simple in design; a real eye catcher & it's like owning a small piece of NASA history. I purchased the chrome one, which in my opinion looks the most "futuristic". The chrome finish does not smudge or leave fingerprints, so it retains its nice silver luster. Also, the bullet pen feels nice in your hand.

IT WRITES WELL. I have not tested this pen underwater or in zero gravity, but for everyday use, it's a pretty good pen. It definitely writes upside down without fail. If you're looking for the finest writing instrument in the world, then this pen may not be for you. The main thing is that it writes fine & it's totally reliable. No shaking the pen or scribbling on a piece of paper first to get the ink flowing.

I highly recommend the chrome Fisher Space Pen. It's fun, it's cool and oh yes... it writes!!

Great Rainbow pen makes me happy!!!!

I bought this pen because in the past I have had other Fisher Space pen and I have found them to be one of the most dependent and great writing pens ever. This is one of the few times when a product works just the way it suppose to. I have found other pens not to write in certain circumstances and being frustrated by the fact, but my Fisher Space pens always write in all kinds of weather and in every situation. If your someone who needs a dependable pen my advice is spend the money and get a Fisher Space Pen you'll never go back to a regular pen again, and they are convenient too.

Great pocket pen

This is a great pocket pen that is surprisingly easy to dent. Oddly, even with (mostly) solid brass construction coated with the notoriously ultra-durable Titanium Nitride coating, after dropping it (admittedly on concrete) it is dented. It rides in my pocket with my keys all day and has no scratches though so the finish is very tough.

I imagined this pen, especially in it's "bullet' form, to be nearly indestructible. It does have a very tough finish, but unfortunately, it will dent, and then that durable finish is deformed. Not scratched, but deformed.

I admit to nit-picking, but it is the only flaw I've found after months of ownership. Don't drop it on concrete and it will remain immaculate.

Oh, and it writes good too.
