Fisher Space Pen, Bullet Space Pen with Shuttle Emblem, Matte Black (600BSH)

As an astronomer I love this type of thing. Wanted to get one for my collection of space memorabilia. Not only is the pen really neat....the box, it comes in and the plastic case are neat. I like this one so much I just ordered a second one for my Eagle Scout son who is heavy into astronomy (member of three astronomy clubs). I already have a Fisher bullet pen which I love (although just a simple non NASA version) so know this one i a first class pen....but this one is going to stay in the box unused for posterity.========================Back to revise my previous review.....not because anything wrong though. I lost my other non-shuttle bullet pen and have gotten so used to it I need another. As mentioned above I have two of the Shuttle pens....one for myself in my astronomy collection and one for my Eagle Scout son. Figure since those are safe and unused I will get another one for day to day use. Hopefully this one doesn't get "borrowed" by my astronomy buddies ;-) Fisher pens are the best!

These pens look great, make great gifts and write silky smooth. There are no negatives with the space pen. I use mine daily to journal, and in fact, I only use this pen in my journal. The black pen with the gold space shuttle looks elegant to boot!

No one else I know has one!This pen does everything it is supposed to do, writes upside down, on all sorts of different surfaces and in wet conditions ( although I haven't used it under water yet) and it is a quality talking piece when used.I take it camping and it has never failed, I guess it will run out some time, but we all do.A pocket clip would be good but I could get one with a clip if I wanted.It's only a pen but you only live once !!D

We got this for a grad that likes psace, or is in space, or is spaced out..well whatever the reason these are quality pens tha I have personally used in the past. very hands.The only detractor is that experience has taught me to get the fine point refill, as the mediums sometimes will make a "blotch" of ink.One of the features I like is that the tip is capped so that you wont get that dreaded ink splotch on your pocket and/or purse if you carry one around.you never know when someone will want your autograph!NOTICE: I have NOT receive this product for free or at a reduced price to make an "unbiased" review. I paid for it myself. I have NOT received any compensation to review the product. The above review is my opinion, after having purchased and used the product.SO THERE!

It's a comfortable pen, the matte black is nice, and it writes as gloriously smoothly as every fisher space pen I've ever used, upside-down and under water and on tests in school. The shuttle is really cool looking, but after a few months of use became somewhat wiggly.I'd still quite recommend it for how cool it looks, but if you're looking for pure functionality pick up a matte black one with a clip or something.

Small enough, almost finger size and easy to carry around, a smooth black coating which seems to design to wear off in future for their rustic design. The Ink runs smoothly on paper and able to execute most kind of strokes both Roman's alphabet and Hiragana Kanji. Would highly recommend.

This pen is super sleek. It feels very nice in my hand. It is a lot smaller than expected but thats a plus. I love writing with it. I was using the fisher F701 as my EDC but I think I'm going to switch to the space pen now. And I love the little gold space shuttle emblem on the cap. A little bit expensive for a pen. But I think its worth it.

Tested it when I got worked fine, tried again a month later and the switch would not go into stun mode.
