Experience true luxury in your palm. Review: The perfect EDC writing implement - Purchased to compliment my Rite in the Rain Notepad - and the combination is ideal. In fact, was useful the first day I had it, to jot down a phone number whilst out walking in the rain. The pen comes nicely packaged in a quality printed card box, containing a solid transparent plastic case, holding the pen in a little "mood scape", underneath which is some interesting "history" reading. The package is nice for gifting purposes. The pen itself is made of coated brass, so longevity and durability should be great. I tested writing on my waterproof notepad whilst it was fully submerged in water, and it functioned perfectly. I then tried writing upside down, on the wet paper and again - perfect! Closed, the pen is simply tiny! I slip the secure pocket clip into the binding spiral of my notepad, and the pen sticks out either side of the pad by a tiny bit. I can then slip both into my breast pocket for EDC. Open, the pen is elegant and comfortable to hold and use. It's about the same length and diameter of a normal good quality pen. A little o-ring holds the lid/end-cap in place when closed, and requires only a very slight force to remove. I wouldn't feel confident that the cap would stay firm under duress i.e. clipped to a shirt pocket when doing an active job like warehouse work or similar. I can't say for certain that it would come loose, but it feels like it could. When open, the cap needs to be only lightly pushed onto the pen body to hold firm enough for writing. It came with the Fisher medium nib and black ink installed, which I find writes smoothly and easily, and does a fine job for general everyday use. I enjoy knowing that I have a reliable writing implement (that won't snap at the wrong second like a pencil can) with me at all times, that's so small and understated, that it doesn't impede my daily doings. Great product :-) Review: Fisher Space Pen Bullet Ballpoint Pen - A great pen that functions well. Recommended. ## Features - Writes in extreme temperatures, underwater, in zero gravity, and at any angle - When open the Bullet measures 13.5cm with a closed length of 9.4cm - Contains PR4 black ink, medium point - Stainless steel, precision machined socket prevents leaks and oozing, yet delivers instant uniform ink flow - Thixotropic ink in a hermetically sealed and pressurised ink cartridge writes for three times longer ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002ZQB3S | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Age range (description) | Adult | | Animal Theme | no animal theme | | Artistic Charcoal Form | Compressed Charcoal | | Best Sellers Rank | 21,350 in Stationery & Office Supplies ( See Top 100 in Stationery & Office Supplies ) 250 in Retractable Ballpoint Pens | | Body Shape | Cylindrical | | Brand | Fisher Space Pen | | Brand Name | Fisher Space Pen | | Colour | Blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 8,312 Reviews | | Drill Point | Medium | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00747609842609 | | Grip Type | rubber | | Included Components | Gift box | | Ink Base | Hybrid | | Ink Colour | Black | | Ink colour | Black | | Is the Product Left or Right Handed? | Ambidextrous | | Item Diameter | 0.97 Centimetres | | Item Dimensions | 9.5 x 1 x 1 centimetres | | Item Weight | 20 Grams | | Line Size | 0.5mm | | Manufacturer | Fisher Space Pen | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Name | 400BB | | Model Number | 400BB | | Recommended Uses For Product | Writing | | Special Features | Waterproof | | Style | Contemporary or Minimalist | | Subject Character | Space | | Theme | Space | | UPC | 920361006964 747609842609 021111466202 097914378448 971482802553 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Ballpoint Pen | | Writing Technique | Ballpoint pen | | Writing instrument form | Ballpoint Pen | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** Fisher Space Pen - **Colour:** Blue - **Ink colour:** Black - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Model name:** 400BB - **Point type:** Medium - **Special feature:** Waterproof - **Unit count:** 1.0 count - **Writing instrument form:** Ballpoint Pen ## Images ![Fisher Space Pen Bullet – Genuine, In Gift Box - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61SvTwIBjUL.jpg) ![Fisher Space Pen Bullet – Genuine, In Gift Box - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kA9L7jnuL.jpg) ![Fisher Space Pen Bullet – Genuine, In Gift Box - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71MMEzXTqzL.jpg) ![Fisher Space Pen Bullet – Genuine, In Gift Box - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fbMdC+8yL.jpg) ![Fisher Space Pen Bullet – Genuine, In Gift Box - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81iNBERwPbL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: is it refillable?** A: Yes it is but I have never had to refill it! I've had this pen for awhile now and its still great, it always works! **Q: is the gold actual gold or a gold paint?** A: Obviously, at $30, it is not actual gold. They don’t specify that it’s β€œgold plated”, so I doubt it’s even 14k or other gold plating, which will eventually wear off with use (especially being handled a lot), anyway. I imagine that the gold exterior, whatever it actually is, probably holds up better than gold plating anyways. I believe this company does offer genuine fine metal pens (sterling silver; gold) priced accordingly, of course. **Q: Does it ever smudge like does it let out enough ink to smudge while writing?** A: No. I've had Fisher pens for several years and smudging has never been a problem. **Q: does anyone know if you can order this inscribed with a name?** A: Hello, Yes, Fisher Pens will inscribe a name. I do not know what they charge at this time. The last time was for a group of 50 people and that was2 years ago, so I do not recall the pricing. Let me know what you want and I will inquire.

Great product :-) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fisher Space Pen Bullet Ballpoint Pen *by M***S on 18 May 2026* A great pen that functions well. Recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really nice pen. *by J***X on 11 May 2015* This is a very good pen that will last for many years. It has a metal body and lid which makes it strong but not too heavy. When closed, the pen is quite small and easy to store in just about any pocket. The pocket clip can be removed but it requires a bit of force to do so. The body of the pen is only about 1.5mm longer than the ink cartridge inside it. By attaching the lid to the bottom of the pen it makes the pen much longer and easier to hold. I have taken some photos of the pen beside a plastic ruler to show it's exact length. There are also some photos of the pen in my hands with and without the lid in place to give an idea of how it looks. I'm 6'0" tall and have x-large (size 10) hands. I can confirm that the pen works well, the ink is smooth to write with and it feels like any good quality pen - the difference with the Space Pen is that the ink cartridge is pressurised and it will write on damp paper or at any angle. Fisher also claim that the cartridge holds 3 times as much ink as a Parker Pen, but I haven't tested that yet! In the photo of the ink cartridge that I uploaded, the piece of white plastic is an attachment that lets you use the ink cartridge in a standard Parker Pen - it isn't used in the Space Pen itself. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fisher Space Pen Bullet Pen, Ballpoint, Blueberry, Brass, Black Ink, Gift Box - Fisher Space Pen, Bullet Space Pen, Purple, Gift Boxed (400PP) - Fisher Space Pen Brass Alloy Bullet Space Pen, Ballpoint, Polished Brass, Black Ink, Gift Box --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/50172113-fisher-space-pen-bullet-genuine-in-gift-box](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/50172113-fisher-space-pen-bullet-genuine-in-gift-box) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-11*
