Man are those super slick looking. I've wanted to add a quality bolt-action pen & pencil to my daily carry or "EDC" as most call it I guess. I've always carried and used knives since I was in highschool and through my yrs in the Army when gained love for Benchmade amongst other brands. I've been following y'all for awhile now and hope to someday add a few of your products to my pockets where they will see decent usage, always seem to need a pen but never have one on me and never owned a actual good refillable so figured it was time. Last few years hit me rough as was already in recovery and with economy live week to week unfortunately. Fingers crossed Santa listens finally 😂
I got the Bolt Action Slim in Ti Black about a month ago and I use it every single day, absolutely love it. My next pen will likely be the Fountain EDC and I am looking to also get one of your Ti Field Watches because they just look awesome. Keep doing what you're doing!
The fountain edc is an awesome pen and I have the solar field watch and it's been very accurate. My only problem with the watch is that it was advertised as including a leather and nylon strap but I got 2 nylon straps and no leather.
The pilot vanishing point is off copyright. Maybe modify it to accept universal cartridges like international standard or converter cartridges. Maybe go with the pilot nibs, those Japanese nibs do extrafine wonderfully. You'd have a hit.
This is intended to be a fly by. We also have more in depth video overviews of different models as well on this channel. Go to the playlist product overviews and they will all be there. We are planning to go back and make more in depth videos for all our legacy models in the next month or so also. Thanks for the comment!
Ive been carrying the mini click for a few months now and I LOVE this pen. I will for sure be adding a few others to the roster like that rad pencil! Every time I pul this pen out people ask me about it and I send them your way!
Nice Pens💯 I would love to see you guys build a Pen Case to be able to carry your favorite pens around and store different refills in. Also it would be really cool if you guys could do Custom Name Engraving on the Damascus Pen Clip.
Will your pens take refills for the Sharpie S Gel 1.0? If so can you list the ones that will. I love the way they write but would like to take them out of my pens and use them in yours.
Hey!! I responded the other day and it looks like I didn't hit send... sorry about that! We have tried them in the past and from my memory they worked just fine. I cant seem to find one here at the shop to test unfortunately. You should be just fine. We also offer free returns if for some reason it doesn't!
Do y’all have a storefront or a local shop that carries a good amount of Big Idea gear? I’m a local (Trenton GA, the first exit after 24 59 split) and definitely want to get some new gear but pens especially are pretty subjective.
Love your pens, have too many actually because I use a pen alot. Here patiently waiting for a timascus pocket pro. Mary up my favorite design and material. Hopefully I'll still be alive when you get around to it.
If the Arto had a push on cap instead of threaded and if one of the O rings hadn’t loosened and continuously dislodged after a week of use- it would definitely be my everyday pen. As it is, useless
Thanks for the kind words.. about the pens.. haha. There are some things you do when youre 18 that live in to your mid thirties.. haha my wife still likes them, so ill hang on to them for a bit longer!
the pull cap model featured here with the extra fine nib looks like a great option tho. i get impatient with higher end western fountain pens that take three cap rotations to unscrew and aren’t available with true extra fine nibs (eg the extra fine gold nibs that come on a pelikan 800 or lamy 2000 put down like 1.0mm width lines with some inks).
i love my EDC Arto. 800 refills to choose from and they all fit like they were made for the pen. best pen i ever had.
So glad youre loving it!!
I have three different and the arto is my fave too. The twist is a bit small for me and the silent click pen needs more noise. Arto is nice.
Thanks for the rundown - that slim click looks like a solid contender - ✌🏼
Totally!!

Thanks for the kind words!! I always say if you dont have a pen and a pocket knife you arent prepared. Wed be honored to be a part of your carry!

Do you have any pens similar to a 3+1 design, ie, pencil plus red, black, blue ink in a single pen?
This needed to be longer with more comparison.

I have your Bolt Action pens and a pencil within reach as I type this. Great writing instruments!
Love it! Thanks for your support
Sad to see that the PHX wasn't included :( No love for the PHX
He we do love the PHX. it is sort of an outlier in our lineup in a few ways so we didnt include it. Glad you like it!
How strong is the black coating? What does it take to remove it? I don’t want to remove it just wondering about durability
Just heavy abrasion, it won’t wear under normal light use
@@bigidesign thanks, would the pen and the keys in the same pocket cause a problem for the DLC coating?
Those definitely are some great looking pens
You know!!

No store front.. but let me know if you have any questions or anything, were happy to help!

Thanks for the love and the feedback! We will have to see what we can make happen for you!

Thanks for the feedback. shoot an email to support@bigidesign.com if youre having an issue with the pen, were ready to help!
Saw "Everyday Carry" and thought it they were the pen knives/pen guns 😭
HAHA Thats a bit out of our scope of things..
The pens are awesome, on the higher end. Brantley?, the button earrings are distracting
Thanks for the kind words.. about the pens.. haha. There are some things you do when youre 18 that live in to your mid thirties.. haha my wife still likes them, so ill hang on to them for a bit longer!
I really thought these were gunna be self defense pens
Any pen is a self defense pen if youre brave enough...
Too bad the side click pen tends to retract while writing without hitting either button. Ugh.
It should do that… shoot an email to support@bigidesign.com our team would love to help!
@@bigidesign
shouldn’t?
Some of us use fountain pens..some cost 4 figures..
Fountain pens can get REAL pricy..
the pull cap model featured here with the extra fine nib looks like a great option tho. i get impatient with higher end western fountain pens that take three cap rotations to unscrew and aren’t available with true extra fine nibs (eg the extra fine gold nibs that come on a pelikan 800 or lamy 2000 put down like 1.0mm width lines with some inks).
$100 pens? Like, writing pens? 😂😂 nah, fam.
Guaranteed you also don't wear a nice watch, huh? Lol
You dont know what youre missing
bought their Ti Utility knife recently, can confirm you are missing out
@@toxenzz for a hundred beans, my drawings had better come to life an get jobs.
No ones forcing you to buy anything.
Is it just me or does he keep saying "PIN" not "Pen"?
im from east tennessee, those are the same words.. haha
