One pen to rule them all...

The unique bolt action shape allows for one fluid motion to advance or retract the refill. Because the surfaces of both the interior part and the inside surface have been carefully machined to be extra smooth, the action feels amazingly satisfying. If there's one pen that we recommend to new customers, it's the Bolt Action.

Made from the finest materials

And there are four options to choose from: titanium, copper, bronze, and zirconium. We picked those four because they're popular, fun to machine, and can withstand a lifetime of use.

TITANIUM

Tough, lightweight, extremely corrosion resistant, and the best-selling material we work with. If this is your first Tactile Turn product, we recommend starting with titanium.

COPPER

One of the few metallic elements with a natural color other than gray or silver. Naturally antimicrobial, copper will patina and darken with time and use.

BRONZE

Consisting mostly of copper, tin, and other metals like aluminum, manganese, nickel, or zinc. Bronze machines beautifully and looks great when highly polished or with some patina.

ZIRCONIUM

Directly below titanium on the periodic table with similar corrosion resistance. Zirconium is difficult to machine and one of the most expensive materials we work with but lustrous, dark grey color looks amazing.

Designed to last forever

Everything we sell comes with a Lifetime Warranty because we believe tools should be carried, used, and trusted to last. If something unexpected goes wrong, let us know and we'll make it right.

    Excellent pen. Well made in the USA 🇺🇸. Love to support and buy American when i can. My only complaint, and it's nothing to do with the pen, is their shipping cost! I took advantage of 1st time buyer 10% off, plus i had a few reward points on an app, so it took some of the cost down, but I highly recommend the pen, though!!

    Makes a great gift.

    I love these pens. I have a titanium bolt action pen, a switch pen, and many of the seasonal pens. The bronze and copper pens make great gifts and I’ve presented several to departing colleagues over the past few months. They have all loved them! After using it a few days, one colleague said, “you’ve turned me into a pen snob.”

    Sexiest pen I’ve ever had the pleasure of holding

    I am in love. I told my long time girlfriend it was time to open up our relationship because I’ve found a new object of my desire. This pen writes with the steamy fire of a thousand sunsets and it cannot be matched.
