Getting emotional about a writing instrument may seem silly yet I can help but rave about the functionality of this Space Pen. The ribbed rubberized finger grip offer the most decisive control of any writing instrument I've used. All brass and steel components are meticulously hand assembled requiring labor hours that the Asian factories would NEVER think about investing. Two-hand-operation - the cap pulls off the point and fastens on to the back providing a nice, well-balanced instrument. Black medium point space refill inside. - Gift Boxed
