FISHER SPACE Bullet Pen .375 Caliber
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, and arguably the most popular pen of the twentieth century. Cited as an outstanding example of industrial art, the classic design of the Fisher Bullet Pen has been exhibited for years in the New York Museum of Modern Art. The Bullet's timeless styling has been the topic of many art books and magazine articles. Often imitated but never duplicated, the Fisher Bullet continues to be the most popular pen.
Cap for this exciting new Space Pen model is an authentic .375 H & H magnum shell. If you plan on doing crosswords on your next flight, it's probably not a good idea to bring this pen through airport security. When open this pen, it fits back into the cap, giving you a balanced and sturdy writing instrument. When closed, Bullet Space Pens are the perfect size to carry in your wallet, pocket, purse, car glove box, organizer or toolbox. The .375 Caliber Bullet Pen is one tough writing implement thanks to its solid, brass lacquered exterior.
The ink cartridge used within all Fisher pens, including this .375 Caliber Bullet Pen, was designed for use in the zero gravity environment of space. The pressurized ink cartridge allows Fisher pen to write at any angle, upside down, underwater, on oil and grease, and in extreme temperatures ranging from -30° F to 250° F. The specialized thixotropic ink writes three times longer than standard ink, in extreme temperatures, and even on top of grease and oil.
The secret to the .375 Caliber Bullet Pen's ability to write in extreme conditions lies within its sealed pressurized ink cartridge. It's pressurized. The pressurized chamber forces ink out of the pen even in the weightless environment of space (or when working on a crossword while lying on the couch). Thixotropic, visco-elastic ink. Paul C. Fisher, inventor of the original Space Pen, was forced to create a new type of ink because existing inks, when pressurized, kept oozing out of the ball point. Tungsten-carbide ballpoint. The precision steel socket in the tip of the .375 Caliber Bullet Space Pen prevents leaks.
Specification
Remark: This pen cap is RAW brass, just as bullets are. That means there is no finish on the brass. Each pen comes in its own unique look. Over time a nice patina will develop.
