For instance, other popular pocket gear would be folding knives and flashlights.
But lets take it one step further.
What are some activities that you do daily?
Is this the EDC tool you forgot to carry? Shown with the TacPen are the author’s Tyrant T.D.C. 001 folding knife, Streamlight Microstream USB flashlight, Hellcat Pro pistol and Black Arch Rev-Con holster.
Do you drive a vehicle?
Write notes or sign receipts?
If so, atactical pencould complement your other gear perfectly.
The TacPen’s pocket clip (on the right) compared to the clip used by his knife. In his opinion, the pen isn’t a true “deep carry” option, but it rides low enough for most needs.
One of the newest tactical pens Ive been carrying and testing is the Tyrant CNC TacPen.
The TacPen could give you the solution.
It has a tungsten glass breaker tip that is tiny, but has an extremely sharp point to it.
The pen includes a pointed tip made of tungsten that is designed to help break windows to escape a car that is submerged or on fire when the doors will not open.
This focuses all the force into that concentrated spot, allowing you to easily break car windows.
It makes it easy to switch between the breaker and pen, but almost too easy.
Ive found myself accidentally engaging/disengaging it every now and then.
Clean lines and a blacked-out aesthetic make the pen look nice. Testing proved its ruggedness.
A warning about the selector bolt: it may become your new fidget toy!
Lastly, the TacPen actually writes very nicely.
Is It a Viable Defensive/Survival Tool?
The rear window of this Buick fell to the Tyrant CNC TacPen. The author tested the tool’s tungsten tip which seemed to work well on standard auto glass.
Test #2: Breaking the Ice a.k.a.
I hit the old Google machine and found a junkyard roughly half an hour away.
After a $25 fee to the attendant, he found me a perfectly good window to break.
While keeping a pen on your body is useful, mounting this one in a vehicle can also make sense.
I was able to shatter the window with ease.
So, to answer the question of this section … .
Yes, I believe the TacPen is actually a viable survival tool.
The tactical pen uses replaceable cartridges. A high-quality Schneider Gelion ink cartridge is included with it.
How to Carry the TacPen?
It may almost seem like a rhetorical question, as pens are traditionally carried in ones pocket, right?
While true, Ive found myself carrying the pen in several ways, in addition to my pocket.
attached to the visor.
It gives you additional functionality and preparedness without having to carry more gear.
If you fall into the former, the Tyrant CNC TacPen is definitely worth checking out for yourself.
