- Have you seen these Ultem (Polyetherimide or PEI) pens on Ebay or AliExpress? If not you probably will soon. These are an interesting, EDC-inspired design that actually makes for a pretty cool pen. You can find them here: ebay.us/RQpts0

Love Ultem as a material and very happy to see more and more products using it. Thanks for pointing out these pens - surprisingly nice from the design standpoint given the price point.
Great video as always. I have this in my cart on Aliexpress right now. So this review is just in time for me. Going to go ahead with the purchase now. 😀 Thank you very much. 🤗👍🏻
Your videos are amazing! I have watched your work for years, but this is the first time I have commented. You are the one reason I am invested I this hobby. Thank you for everything and keep up the hard work!
Thanks for the kind words and watching through the years
Great review! Ordered one today (roller).
Hope you enjoy it!
I tried to find out more about the manufacturer. It seems that these pens were made especially for this AliExpress/Taobao shop. Who made them? Impossible to find out. There is no clue given. The shop is called "XGEDC", which stands for "Small high-end boutique of EDC outdoor equipment" according to their promotional information in Chinese.
From what I gather, Ultem/PEI is the new trendy material in China. Not so long ago, it wasn't available. Today, this engineered polymer is available at an affordable price. Maybe someone has started producing it in China.
Great info! Thanks
Fun fact: I was just looking at these on aliexpress when your video came out. I've also seen a bolt action variant similar to TT makes. Seriosly considering ordering one. Cheers!
Haven’t tried the bolt action yet but it does seem quite popular
U kno any refill alternatives for rite in the rains bolt action pen? Hate the fisher cartridge
I only have one gripe with ultem generally - the pee color. Otherwise good stuff!
Hi! A new viewer here just wants to ask: What are you going to do with all your pens, pencils, and paper? Do you use them for journaling, drawing, or anything else?
All sorts of stuff, but I do extensive note taking which is the number one use of pens and ink. I find hand written notes aid the memory greatly.
@@unsharpen thank you!
Comprehensive review! Does this plastic only come in yellow, or are there other colours (like Translucent black for eg)?
Only this yellow/orange that I’ve seen.
If I'm not mistaken, that's the color of this type of durable plastic.
They need to bring back Bakelite pens!!!
This would be great. I have heard about serious leaking problems with Bakelite fountain pens but the are so cool
Not for me but thanks for the video.
Fair enough!
@@unsharpen I have to say, your videos definitely influence my purchases. When you demonstrate functionality, construction and scale, it helps seal the deal...either way.
Parker style refill. 😢
