So I found this pretty sweet "titanium tactical pen" on the 'bay. It was
displayed in all the pictures as very high quality and in addition to
writing which all pens should really accomplish fairly well, it had
pictures of some dude using the back of the pen to bust through a car's
glass window. Handy!
I bid for it and won, and soon it was in my possession. Now, the seller
had been quite clear that it would ship with NO refill in it, but
included a handy link to the correct fitting refill from Parker. So I
clicked on that link and found that I could choose from all kinds of
fancy Java menus to peruse any of about 15 different types of pen
refills in all kinds of sizes and stuff. I ordered some standard
rollerball refills (which fortunately do fit in another pen I own).
Needless to say, when the refill arrived I slipped it in my awesome
titanium pen and it rattled around and back and forth like dice in the
Yahtzee cup. So I went back and messaged the seller to explain that I
was having trouble finding the right refill and he of course responded
very promptly with another link to multiple items in the Parker pen
line. Finally I bought a couple more and by process of elimination I
finally have a pen that not only breaks windows, but writes on paper.
Also I have plenty of refills for other pens lying around...thanks

VERDICT: ON A SCALE FROM 1 TO 57 WHERE 1 IS BEEFY, 57 IS PRETTY BEEFY, AND 23 IS VERY BEEFY, THIS RATES AS A 34.
