My tactical pen is a weapon?
I just got a tactical pen just because I like its heft. It's rounded on both ends and weighs about as much as a roll of dimes.
It's not a weapon per se, and it's different from the item found in this thread, but I suppose I could jab it into someone's eye just like I could a 15 cent Bic. Wondering if they'd steal it from me at the checkpoint. My pen is dangerous? :D |

Based on previous experience, that could, possibly (:(:td:) be considered a weapon. The design allows it to double as a Kubaton, a striking item, and still sign for the package at the office. I wouldn't risk running into someone that would give you a hard time over it - send it in checked bags if you take it with you.
That sucker is heavy man! I like that one myself, might have to order one for the homestead! |

Take the space out and that might be dangerous too - they might have to have a touchy-feely check around there.
(Thanks for the laugh, anyway. :D) |

Disassemble It!
;) I say this only part in jest but it would be great if you disassembled it and then put a Preparation H wrapped suppository in the open end of it.
Then pack the Prep H box alongside it in your carryon. If tsa were stupid enough to ask about the pen just say its an obvious aid for a medical condition.:) |
My question is under what circumstances would one need to use a pen at +250°F ?

While I don't have a fancy pen like his I have carried a space pen for ages and I love it. They simply don't leak and they write in any position--this means you can throw a piece of paper up on the wall and write on it. I've done that many a time with mine. I only use mine as one to carry with me, for a normal home or office environment I prefer a gel pen because they write nicer. |
