Zebra Pen X-701 Tactical Ballpoint Pen with Bonus Refills, Fine Point, 0.7mm, Black Ink, 1-Count (29811)

However, the reality is that the Zebra X-701 Tactical Pen has proven to be an incredible performer that surpasses my initial expectations. It operates perfectly well under all temperature conditions, unlike many other pens that often get stuck or skip under cold weather conditions. There is no problem with ink flow as this pen does not need much pressure when writing. As regards the construction of the pen, this item is worth special attention due to its premium quality. With a matte finish made of stainless steel and black color, it seems quite durable while having enough weight not to be excessively heavy. Interestingly, there is one surprising element to add here, which is that other people often comment on the pen, admiring its appearance and asking about it as the pen has rather an unusual look. In summary, this Zebra X-701 Tactical Pen appears to be reliable and sturdy. In addition, the quality of its writing performance is rather good. This pen can be considered an excellent choice for daily use.

胸ポケットにボールペンを入れて、頻繁に出し入れするので、いろいろなものを試している。 書き心地は普通のボールペンよりちょっと良いくらいだけど、ペン先にインクが溜まりにくく、ドバっとインクが出ることはない。 クリップ部もちょうど良いバネでスムーズに出し入れでき、抜け落ちることもない。 丈夫なボディには安心感がある。

Der Zebra PEN X701 Tactical stand schon sehr lange auf meiner Wunschliste, nun habe ich ihn seit ca. 1 Woche in der Hosentasche dabei und möchte ein kurzes Feedback geben. Der Mechanismus zum Miene ein/ausfahren ist sehr leichtgängig und angenehm zu drücken. Der Stift schreibt direkt und sauber. Ein weiterer positiver Aspekt ist, dass direkt zwei Ersatzmienen mitgeliefert werden. Optisch finde ich den Stift auch sehr ansprechend. Was mir absolut nicht gefällt ist, dass bereits nach wenigen Tagen in der Hosentasche tragen der Lack abgeht. Da habe ich von einem „tactical“ Pen mehr erwartet. Vorallem weil in der Produktbeschreibung steht dass die Lackierung verbessert wurde um ein absplittern zu verhindern. Das schränkt natürlich die Funktion in keinster Weise ein. Ich würde den Stift nur noch einmal kaufen wenn ich wüsste dass der Lack besser hält, vorallem für den doch nicht ganz billigen Preis von knapp 30€

I’m a (value) pen fanatic. I have bought hundreds of pens. I was a big fan of Zebra for many years but I strayed because I started to see some ink quality issues that seemed like more than a fluke. After years of reliable performance from the brand, I was seeing refills that didn’t work at all, worked a very short time and A LOT of skipping. This pen may bring me back into the Zebra fold. If you want performance in the absolute harshest conditions, your best bet is Fisher or Rite In The Rain. They are great for many things but, of course, there are tradeoffs. I think this pen is THE NEXT BEST THING for harsh conditions. What’s more, it has all the advantages of a good, normal pen with none of the disadvantages of those “extreme” performers. This pen can sit, unused, for 3 months in a freezing van in the middle of the winter or a broiling van in the middle of the summer and you can pick it up and watch it immediately write perfectly. No skipping, no early ink failures (so far). It does write on less than optimal surfaces that would be problematic for normal pens. Does it perform in conditions as extreme as a Fisher or RITR? No, but it is significantly better performing than pretty much any other pen, including other “extreme” pens I’ve used. And, I find that it does the job 99.99% of the time for essentially the same cost as a normal “nice” pen. This guy is perfect for the typical pen user in adverse conditions. It has performed excellently and has yet to let me down. It even has me giving Zebra another look after abandoning my fanboy status years ago.

Después de 1 año con esta pluma estas son mis conclusiones: PROS -Si deseas una pluma resistente, que no chorrea, escribe bien y aguanta el uso rudo (traerla en la bolsa del pantalón, en una mochila, en una chamarra o solapa) esta pluma es para ti. No es por completo de metal pero lo suficiente para ser resistente. -Si deseas una pluma "táctica", como posible opción para defensa personal, esto NO es para ti. No es suficientemente resistente. CONTRAS -Repuestos: no hay, no existen, nadie tiene. Si escribes mucho se te va a terminar a los dos meses y vas a tener que comprar otra. Busqué repuestos con el proveedor directamente y con varios distribuidores y nada. -Precio: sin repuestos disponibles, no es un precio competitivo. Es mejor comprar plumas desechables en lugar de estar gastando cada mes o dos en esta pluma. CONCLUSIONES: excelente calidad y durabilidad. Que no haya repuestos la vuelve una mala opción. Una lástima.
