Cyber Space Pens - The Fabulous Thunderbirds

The Thunderbird Retractable Pen is part of the The Fisher Space Pens Aviation Series. This series also includes a Thunderbird Mechanical Pencil. You can but them individually or get them as a set in an impressive gift box.

What makes them Thunderbirds? It is actually the United States Air Force Thunderbirds ink pen. It was intentionally designed with a gripping knob so that pilots could easily retrieve and replace the pens from the lower leg pocket of their flight suit. Pretty clever, huh?

The barrel of the pen is engraved with the word Thunderbird and the the knob of both the pen and pencil have the Thunderbird emblem in color. Both of these top of the line writing instruments are 5 inches long with a .375 diameter barrel. The pen uses medium point black ink while the pencil uses .9 mm lead. These are nice high-end gift options for any aviation fan.

If your gift target is not high end and is not an aviation fan, then take a look at some of the other Fisher Pens at Cyber Space Pens. I have it on good authority that the Chrome X Marks makes and excellent gift (my friend loves the one I bought her for Christmas). The Rainbow Titanium Nitride is another very safe bet. It is a very popular pen.

Cyber Space Pens - Inexpensive Yet Reliable Options

Ok Ladies, how many times have you pulled your pen out of your purse and it didn’t work?  Granted, it’s not the end of the world, but it is highly annoying.  Well, Fisher Space Pens has a solution to that problem too.  The Fisher Stowaway Series Pens are inexpensive and perfect for your checkbook, purse, or day planner.

The Stowaway’s come in three styles - without clip, with clip, with clip and stylus - and three colors - red, blue, and black.  These are very slim, capped pens.  When they are capped they are a compact 3-7/8 inches long and when they are ready to write they are 5-1/4 inches long.  Like I said, perfect for your checkbook, purse, or day planner.

Though they are non-refillable, they still have the pressurized ink cartridge and will write at any angle and in nearly any circumstance.  All of the Stowaway Pens come with black ink and a medium point.

Another great option in the non-refillable category is the Rocket Series Pens.  These pens are not as small and compact as the Stowaways, but they have the same basic great features.  They are inexpensive and reliable!  These are retractable pens and come in red, black, blue, and silver.  They each come with a fine point cartridge with ink that matches the color of the barrel of the pen.

These make great gifts, but they are inexpensive enough to justify buying for yourself!

Cyber Space Pens - It’s a mood thing

As I was sitting here pondering which awesome Fisher Space Pen to write about today, I just started looking through the site.  I realized that my favorite pen depends on my mood.  Two weeks ago, the X-750 Pens were my heart’s desire.  They are just so professional looking - though the Blue X-750 does add a bit of fun to the mix.

Before that, I was all about the Lime Green Bullet Pen with the Golf Ball on it.  How could anyone not love that pen?  I always refer to it as the happy little pen.  I do not even golf - but I love that pen!

The most predictable pen for me to like - if you know me - is the Titanium Coated Bullet Pen - Black Titanium Nitride.  It’s simple, sleek, and just really cool looking.  I love simple cool looking things.

Well, as I looked through the site this morning, I was surprised to discover that is I were to receive my choice of Fisher Pens today, it would be … (drum roll) … the Translucent Lacquered Bullet Pen - Red Cherry with Clip.  I know, the picture sort of gave away.  I am not even that fond of red but I really like the way this pen looks.  All of the Lacquered Bullets are so vibrant and I think the chrome clip really sets off the color. Yes, it’s a woman typing this entry!

Though the pictures on the site show the pens well, what they don’t show is how small they are with the cap on.  They are less than four inches long.  When you remove the cap and place it on the other end for writing, the pen looks full-size.  It really is something to open up that box and see that little pen in there.  You will definitely want to keep these in mind as gift ideas.  You can even by the set of five and save money.  Then you’ll have them and you can just decide who to give them to.  Good luck with that … you’ll want to keep them for yourself!

Cyber Space Pens - A Gift to Say Thanks

Anyone who has served or is serving in our Armed Forces takes great pride in that service.  This fact is not lost on Fisher Space Pens and that is why you will find a whole series of pens (actually two series) dedicated to the U.S. Military.

The Military Bullet Pens have a Matte Black or Chrome finish and can be purchased with either the seal for a particular branch or the word/letters identifying the particular branch (ARMY, NAVY, USMC, USAF, USCG).  The pens that have the letters come with the removable clip, but if you order a pen with the seal and want the clip as well, you can purchase it.  For those proud Marines, there is also a Marine Corps Red Bullet Pen, and honestly that is the pen to buy your favorite Marine.

Military Cap-O-Matics are another option.  While they aren’t as small and well, frankly sweet looking as the Bullet Pens, they are a bit more practical as they come with a clip and are retractable.  These only come in the Matte Black Finish which again is practical since you want to be using a pen that is not going to reflect light if you are in a tactical environment.

Really, a pen from either series would make a great gift.  As an Army veteran, I would love a Chrome Bullet Pen with the Army Seal.  Since I am no longer worried about light reflecting, I am going to go for style.  Unfortunately, no one in my life thinks I need one - I guess they are not as proud of my service as I am!  Seriously, this is a perfect gift to show someone your gratitude for their service.  If you are buying for someone currently serving overseas … go with Matte Black in either the Bullet or the Cap-O-Matic.  If you are buying for a veteran, go with the Chrome Bullet.  You have no idea how much your acknowledgment of their service will mean to them.

Cyber Space Pens - Really … Eighty Years

Did you get a Fisher Space Pen for Christmas?  Sadly, I did not.  I did give one as a gift and it did turn out to be a nice little conversation piece.  These pens really are great and I enjoy talking about them … to an annoying degree sometimes I am afraid … but I love when I get to the point of mentioning the Lifetime Pens.  No one ever believes me when I tell them that these pens will last about eighty years without running out of ink.  It goes the same way each time, they keep saying something like, “It won’t run out of ink? … You mean without a refill? … How is that possible?”  They never end up believing me!

It is in fact true that the Lifetime Pens will not run out of ink in the average person’s life span.  I do not know how it is possible, and I do not care … I kind of like the mystery.  I only know that a pen from this series this is not the pen for me, because I tend to lose things like pens, and keys, and cell phones.  This is the pen for the person who can keep track of it for eighty or so years, and who can afford it or has friends who can afford to gift it as a gift.  (It costs a wee bit more than a Bic)

There are three varieties in the Lifetime Series (I keep thinking of television made for women), the Millenium Pens, the Millenium II Pens, and the Mars Pens.  All of them come with Bold points and either blue or black ink.  The Millenium Pens have a Chrome finish, while the Millenium II and the Mars Pens have Titanium Nitride Finishes in either black or gold. 

These really are the ultimate pens.

Cyber Space Pens - Did You Hear the News?

Just in case you missed it, there is a new Fisher Space Pen in town.  Some wonder how it could have taken this long for Fisher Pens to get around to making a bullet pen out of a real shell casing, but it doesn’t matter, because it’s here.  The .375 H&H Bullet Pen is capped pen that uses the .375 Mag Shell case as the cap.

Okay, for those of us who know nothing about guns and bullets …. what is a .375 H&H Mag Shell Case?  Thank you Wikipedia - I have my answer.  The “.375″ refers to the bullet diameter.  The “H&H” stands for Holland & Holland,  the British Company who introduced this bullet in 1912. The “Magnum” part basically means it carries a big boom.  The “Case” means you have the shell without the inside part that carries the big boom.  So, it could be referred to as the .375 Diameter Holland & Holland Big Boom Bullet Shell Pen … kind of fun to say, but not very practical.

If you look at at a real .375 H&H Mag rifle round and then you look at this pen … it’s pretty neat.  Go ahead, look up an image and compare.  Wikipedia also informs me that the maximum cartridge length is 3.6 inches and the Bullet Pen comes in at just under 4 inches (with the lid on).  Not too shabby.

Now don’t you just want to buy this for someone?  You might be a little late for Christmas, but it’s always somebody’s birthday!  Keep this Bullet Pen in mind!
