EDC - What's In Your Pocket(s)??? Part 2

I have that pen. It weighs more than my Benchmade 940 Osborne! :-) Try a Zebra F-701 Stainless Steel Ballpoint Pen. You can get 3 on Ebay for $17 shipped and the quality is surprisingly good.

I have a couple of F-701s. The quality looks good on the outside, but the inside is a different story. The section right where the knurled portion meets the smooth one is what I mean. The F-701 isn't a tough tactical pen. Try using one the same way as that C.C. Embassy Pen in S.S., and the F-701 has a tendency to snap apart right where the knurling meets the smooth portion.

Admittedly, as just an EDC pen, the F-701 gets the job done and is considerably lighter than the County Comm S.S. pen. But the C.C. is actually designed for use as a kubaton. I love mine. Despite the weight.

Going with my high dollar knives today, byrd crossbill and gerber remix. Got tired of my 0200 and 51 Morpho, so now I'm back to these guys

The County Comm aluminum pens are just like the SS version but lighter.

I've been hunting for a 960 Osborne for a while but came across the HD 13960 instead. Not thrilled with the huge HD logo but happier with the S30V than the 960's D2. A neat little knife, kind of a miniature cross between the 940 Osborn and 930 Kulgera.
