Extreme Duty or Investigator?

Well you guys finally convinced me. I've been going back and forth for a few weeks now. Pen or no pen, investigator or ED. Stainless, copper or brass. I made up my mind. The brass investigator will be mine! Once they come back in stock.

Yep, I just did the same w/ the copper - it's all YOU GUYS' fault I keep finding more RHK stuff I can't live without!! :D

Yes "you guys" are going to put me in the poor house. I'm going to write Rick a strongly worded letter as well asking him to stop making such awesome stuff that I can't live without.

Yes, a strongly worded message - the key word being PLEASE.... :)

Ok I did it. I pulled the trigger on a bronze investigator yesterday. As of now I'm not a pen guy at all, but I do love everything that is hinderer. I need to know first hand what all the hype is about with these pens. I see that most other hinderer guys get into the pens also, so I thought what the hell? At least they are cheaper than the knives right? Man I hope I don't like it as much the XMs or I am in real trouble! Thank you for hooking me up Rob!

I wasn't a pen guy until not having one cost me big time in my youth by short-term alcohol infused memory forgetting the phone number and room number of one of the most attractive young ladies ever to show me "kindness". Now a pen is with me most every waking moment. Carry a phone now too, had accidentally left mine back in the hotel that night.

The bronze stuff from the a Ranch is one of my favorites. You made a good choice.

And Rob is one of the best people I've ever had the pleasure to communicate with...and for that matter meet.

If that ever happens again N2K, take your knife out and carve the phone# into your forearm. Really impressive! How I met my first Wife ........
On second thought, don't do what I did :eek:

I should have a copper one delivered today! Just got home from my shift last night, hopefully I'll wake up this afternoon and have been visited by the Hinderer Claus :)

I like it! Although it's smaller than I imagined, it seems to be just about the right size in hand - has a nice feel to it.

I have not weighed them, but the SS and Copper have the most heft with the SS feeling a little heavier. The titanium is really cool, but is definitely the lightest and that is why I prefer writing with the SS and copper. The titanium is nicest in a dress shirt pocket.

Nice! Yep, they are smallish, that's a big why the cap screws onto the backside.

I like that pen a lot.
 
i'd like to add something to this, I do not have an ed pen, but i do have an investigator pen. for quick notes, writing a letter etc, the investigator is fine, size is great etc. that being said, for long writing sessions the investigator is NOT comfortable. the cutouts provide a secure grip for writing with a glove, or punching, but after 1h30 of writing it starts seriously hurting. I am a uni student and have exams in the coming days (next one is tommorow :( )therefor i often am hunched over my desk with my pen for long periods of time. I rather use another pen for studying. again, for edc and short writing purposes it is the best you can get.

Have you tried adding o-rings for comfort?
