What the @#%! is a Tactical Pen?

Have you ever been to a club, an airport, any place with security? Has it ever occurred to you that in these places weapons aren't allowed? How would you protect yourself where you aren't allowed to carry knives, guns or anything? You could sneak them in and risk getting penalized, or you could just carry a pen; not just any pen: a tactical pen.

The origins of the tactical pen can be taken back to 1950's Japan. Takayki Kubota, a self defense instructor that went on to train the LAPD, created a close-quarter jabbing weapon known as the kubotan. A tactical pen is essentially a kubotan disguised to look like a harmless ink pen. The tactical pen can be very dangerous to whomever is on the receiving end. The purpose of the tactical pen, and main “tactic” for anyone using it, is to strike any attacker in the sensitive parts of his or her body. Pressure points are ideal.

Pens feature an industrial look and fit comfortably in your hands.

With this kubotan looking and writing like the average pen, one can have a supreme form of self-defense on them at all times. Kubota trained police officers to use these devices as tools to ”restrain suspects without causing permanent injury”. This item is not known to be lethal, but can be in the right hands. While this item maybe offensive in some places, in most it is not. It is simply a heavy duty ink pen... one that can render you helpless.

Tactical pens are readily available online ranging from $20 to over $60.  A wide range of companies produce them from “Tacticool” companies to trusted gun and knife stores. The tactical pens that are on pantherwholesale.com are made by Takedown Gear®. These tactical pens are made from aircraft aluminum so they are strong but don't weigh you down. The item pictured, Takedown®'s TDH-8-1, features a plethora of goodies to make your regular writing utensils look especially wimpy.

Tip of pen is a solid steel jabbing point.

• A solid steel pocket clip that is firmly attached to the top of the pen -  With this you don't have to worry about your pocket clip breaking off and being left to hold your pen in your hand or let it float loosely in your pocket.
• Jagged and ribbed DNA catcher at the top of some pens - This is a great feature, just jab this edge into any part of the assailant's skin and it is sure to break through. The DNA catcher will come back with blood or tissue to make it easy to identify whoever gets away from your swift treatment. The edge of the DNA catcher is sure to inflict a lot of hurt as well.
• The bottom tip of the pen has a solid steel pointed end - This provides another jabbing point and makes this tactical pen a double edged sword. This end is perfect for those pressure points.
• Fully functional and refillable ink pen - Pull off the top to reveal a good writing utensil with textured holding points making for a supreme grip. 

The pocket clip is forged from solid steel and securely attached.

Remember: a tactical pen is discreet and will not cause alarm. It can break glass and includes a pocket clip that will probably never break off. It is a sleek writing tool that above being a DNA catcher as well as a defense jabber, just looks cool. It is (in most cases) a legal self defense tool that everyone should at least hold once. Feel the power.
