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.

    Lefty and Righty bolt action Titanium

    I bought a left handed bolt action for myself and a right handed for my son that was also engraved with his name. Great robust design and nice action. They look like they are built to last. Happy with my purchase.

    Beautiful pen

    This is probably my 4th or 5th pen from Tactile and I’m never disappointed. I love their products and the patina already forming on this pen is beautiful.

    New favorite thing

    I wanted this pen so badly and now that I have it, I Iike it even more. The balance and heft of the pen make it so smooth to write with. I swear it even improved my penmanship.
