I am not a fan of so called tactical pens. For one thing, they don't cut. Knives don't
write, but if you need to write something you are more likely to find a pen lying
around than a good knife. ie. if I am at home and need to pick a pen for taking a
note, I will find one in a drawer. If I am in the horseyard and one of the horses gets
entangled with a rope, I won't have a knife unless I pack one myself.

There is also the fact that no LEO is getting fooled by a tactical pen. It is gonna be
classified as a weapon. If you are going to carry something that will be classified as
a weapon with the intention of using it as a weapon, you may as well pack the real
deal.
