Schrade tactical fountain pen

I have been in the market for a new work pen for some time now.

and as ridiculous as it is has consumed some of my time.

i have three pens i depend on a lot:

1.  sharpie permanent marker - not changing 

2.  signo #207 uni-ball - not changing

3. and most used a fountain pen.

the old work fountain pen was a pilot plumix fountain pen.

this was a very reliable yet inexpensive writer with a japan italic nib.

unfortunately, it is no longer available at our general store.

what i like about it is that i could drop and knock it around.

the replacement is going to be the schrade tactical fountain pen.

felt great in the hand and scribed very well.

i need to say looks much more like a "work" pen (in form and function).

close up of the smaller japan nib.

close of the german nib.

i will miss the squareness of the pilot's write

but

will greatly enjoy the smoothness of the schrade write.
