G10 is a composite material that's made by layering glass cloth soaked in epoxy. It's very popular in the EDC community for knife scales because it's light and durable but there are challenges to making it into pens. Specifically, it only comes in sheets and is extremely messy to machine. The natural (jade) color will slowly darken and patina over time while the OD Green should remain unchanged. Also, the texture is prominent right out of the box but will eventually smooth on the high-wear areas.
Pairs well with the G10 Maverick knife →

    A perfectly balanced pen

    Balance is the best way to describe this pen. Heavy enough to not feel flimsy but not too heavy to make it difficult to use for longer stretches. Short enough to fit in most pockets but long enough to fit well in your hand. Great grip as well.

    The G10 Bolt action is a very well-made pen, well suited for cold and wet conditions, where a metal pen would make it difficult to write with. I am a big fan of the texture that the G10 scale provides and decreased weight compared to a pen of comparable size and construction. I usually write with a brass bolt action pen, and this is much easier to carry at work, where my toolbelt is already heavy enough. My only real complaint mainly stems from my own mistake. I prefer parker refills, and unfortunately, I bought the longer gel version of the pen, which doesn't work best for a wet environment such as a tree farm. I also found the 5.6" pen to be quite long for my pants pocket and belt holster, leading me to keep it in my vest pocket. Overall, the pen is just what I expected in terms of feel and performance, and I've already ordered 2 more of the 5.1" for work.
