Tactile Turn Side Click Review...and a giveaway!

[@FigbootonPens]

Please forgive the audio quality of this review. It's something I'm not particularly pleased with. I'm working through a number of challenges in order to increase the overall audio quality. Next review, it should be significantly better.

[@graphingwhale4585]

I really didn't notice until you pointed it out. Thanks for caring about our experience!

[@chrisfriedel4843]

Another great video really liked all the model's you showed.

[@filippotommy4701]

I think it sounded fine, I did not get any issues with the sound quality.

[@sajidkhansanidkhan9411]

Don't worry sir...your voice and your knowledge of pens is awesome..

[@yuvalyarmus6533]

When is the next review?

[@cynthiaalvarado8610]

I met some of the guys from Tactile at the Dallas Pen Show last year. They are amazing people! They had sold their last Titanium fire treated Gist but then sent one of the guys to the shop to make me one. It was for my husband, so I really appreciated their commitment and dedication. The quality of the pens show this and it comes through in their work.

[@karenstepanov1703]

Another great review, David👏 When I started my pen collection, I couldn’t imagine that I would wish to have a ballpoint pen, but ... Tactile Turn changed everything!!!

[@judithbenton8398]

Hey David! I truly appreciate your pen reviews. You are very thorough. please keep the reviews coming. I love writing with rollerballs.

[@tomosdavies4049]

Absolutely love the pen. Since getting into fountain pens, I've turned my back a little on ballpoints, but I must say, these tactile turns might be enough to convert me! If I am in a situation where a fountain pen is not appropriate, I usually go to a bic biro which I carry. Thanks for your brilliant uploads, David.

[@janelleblakeway4447]

I really like the look of these, and pilot ink is so much better than the competition. I have really been enjoying your content over the last few months.

[@jimmyreekes5297]

I have always been a fan of Will’s work. I have a Fisher AG-7 which has a side click mechanism and love it. I love the fact that every component of the pen is machined in house by Will and his team

[@taniazou6794]

Lovely pen and great review as always! I really like the accuracy and the tone of your videos!

[@jeremymiller3305]

This pen looks really well engineered. I love the different options you can get with the metals.

[@ryanhouston7498]

I love the continuous groove running the whole length of the pen. Very subtle way to add texture/traction

[@nicpitic1673]

For quite a while, I have the BigI design TI Pocket Pro... in my pocket, The Spoke pen Joker in my bag and desk, and a Retro 51 on the desk (the current one is the Pink Robot). And for the important part of the comment, it's nice to see different pen types to be reviewed. You are the only reviewer I still make time to watch on KZbin, keep up the good job.

[@Codeman_055]

Thanks David! Another well done vid - love the mechanics of this pen!

[@michaelbaranowski2948]

TT does such a nice job on both design and machining! I have really enjoyed a Ti 0.5mm pencil of his that I also had him engrave. Thanks for reviewing it so well and so early!

[@michaelgodat6071]

Excellent looking pen. I must say, my heart continues to beat for the US Skilcraft click pen. So many memories brought back of my days on a submarine. The memories come flooding back everytime I use a Skilcraft

[@joemanfresh]

Thank you for the review and thank you and tactile turn for the opportunity! Current favorite pen is an old classic: the Fisher Space Pen Bullet in matte black.

[@cn9800]

Hi FIGBOOT! Love your channel also I’ve been eyeing this on my Facebook feed. Thank you for the review.

[@nerdcm355]

David, your videos are so informative and entertaining. Thank you so much for the wonderful content!

[@mayanalien]

First video of yours i watch. Great review. Really cool format using macro photos. Great vid.

[@ncerator]

I happened across one of your reviews one day and then I fell into the rabbit hole of fountain pens. I'm trying to get a friend into fountain pens too - I can only return the favor after he got me into watches. But I would like to say that your reviews are great particularly the story that you tell and the deep research in the background you provide. I'd say the pilot g2 are pretty awesome. Thanks again for the great reviews David!

[@eliasorozco5169]

Great review and awesome close ups. Great detail. My favorite go to non fountain pen is the Dr Grip All Black for it's center balance and grip width.

[@sarbeanicolae]

Impressive new pen from Tactile Turn! I like that the whole pen and parts are made in house.

[@MatthewL02]

Happy belated ballpoint day!! I love my Big Idea Design Ti Arto EDC pen, definitely a workhorse pen and it looks awesome in all black. Love your content Dave!

[@williammodlin2621]

David, great detail and thoughtful comments in your review as usual. I didn't think the audio was a problem. I'm thinking seriously about buying one of these if I don't win, too.!

[@mpatrick460]

I previously carried a zebra "all metal" with a space pen refill but then my wife got me a mover from tactile turn and it has been in my pocket ever since. Love the feel and the true all metal construction. Very excited for the side click and will be purchasing one tonight.

[@houstonillo7570]

Excellent review, love the tactile turn lineup! That new side click looks awesome!!

[@eladn3059]

Thank you David for another great review. I really like the Pilot G2 pens...

[@Deyus]

Thank you David for another awesome review! I don't have many rollerball or ballpoint pens in my collection, so picking a favorite is difficult. I've been eyeing the tactile turn for a while but currently I use a Ti pen I received from their original Kickstarter.

[@minecraftdimondz]

As an architecture student, lead holders are my favorite non-fountain pen means of writing. The Y-Studio lead holder got my through the first few years of my program. In terms of ink, a box of Pilot G2s supplement the colorful Stabilo microns i use for sketching/drafting. Another Great Review! Happy to see your channel growing!

[@karanveersinghdulku]

Thanks for the review David ! My favourite non FP would be a pilot V5 roller ball with liquid ink . It's incredibly smooth and writes for very long . I used one of those during my high school times .

[@seanoneill304]

My current favorite non-fountain pen is the Rotring 600 ballpoint pen in the new camo green color. Thanks for having this contest!

[@Mason-vz4qk]

My current favorite non fountain pen is the bolt action short. I’ve had it for a few months and i can’t seem to get it out of my pocket. Great video! Keep it up.

[@nojodash]

Amazing looking pen! Currently using a Karas Kustoms EDK, but have one of Will’s bolt action pens as well.. thanks for the GAW opportunity!

[@SINVISC]

Cheers. My favorite non fountain is the Pilot Dr. Grip... it's just very comfortable for someone with large hands and longer writing in the office

[@xviper89x]

Great review. I have been a fan of tactile turn for a while and purchased a few of their pens when they were on Kickstarter. This looks like a very neat improvement to this style of mechanism.

[@philippemonnier2617]

Thanks for the review and giveaway!! As I work in Pharma, I do have to use ballpoints a whole lot for signing documents and things of that nature. I carry everyday two pens my dad gave me, a Lamy accent and a tiny Porsche design pen which has a sort of shaking mechanism.

[@1992gday]

Thanks for keeping up with the content the last few months :) With regard to my favourite non-fountain pen, I'd have to go for the generic bic, it just doesn't let you down!

[@davidmcguigan5497]

Thanks for the chance to win a really nice pen! The first ballpoint that came to my mind took me back to high school, the Bic Clic, came in lots of colors, very popular, in the 1970s.

[@JtC87]

Thanks for the typically great review. You have been an enormous help to my burgeoning pen collection. Keep up the great work!

[@RosarioDiRubbo]

Terrific pen, I would really love to win one! The design looks not only innovative but also very classy, especially in copper! Thanks for the opportunity!

[@barrylevitt1170]

My favorite ballpoint/rollerbal is the first generation Tactile Turn mover. Thank You for the review.

[@jonnybaseball98]

Glad this pen manufacturer was reviewed. Very interesting pen creation. My favorite ballpoint is my Parker Jotter.

[@FrankCastle-he8fl]

They look great thanks for giving some attention to the Tactical pen section and I'm also a fan of the G2 especially with the Mont Blanc hack

[@arlopalmer8195]

My favorite ballpoint/rollerball is the Pilot G2. I was very happy to hear that this pen uses the G2 refills, as I love the refills, but I don't love the cheap injection molded body. Thanks for the review. I love your channel!

[@andrewr.786]

I gotta say I love that he used a torx bit bolt for the clip. The damascus clip looks amazing as well. My favorite non-fountain pen is a simple EnerGel. Nice and reliable in the lab!

[@Nimbuswhite]

Thank you for the constant reviews!!

[@lizcolton9936]

What a gorgeous cooool pen! Thank you for the fabulous review!

[@desireem.6761]

I am a big fountain pen and ink person! But I love non fountain pens also! My favorite non fountain pen is C and T Pen Type B. I am addicted to the sound it makes when you release the pen from its metal case! Thank you David for your informative and interesting reviews. I have learned so much from you over the years‼️🤓

[@vladanvidakovic2660]

Thanks for the review, David. I don't have a favourite ballpoint pen because I rarely use them, but this one I like.

[@amybrazelton6825]

I think my Retro 51 is one that I use a lot ... I always have it with me. Thanks for the great review!

[@Evan-sb7lj]

Pentel hexreform is my current favorite. The machining on the tactile turns always amazes me and I'll have to pick one up some day.

[@delkott]

Thanks a lot for yet another excellent review. Just yesterday, I was viewing the copper Tactile Turn Gist fountain pen on Tactile Turn website. It is nice that this particular pen takes ubiquitous gel pen. cartridges.

[@AlanJOCasado]

They all look great, and the Damascus clip is simply stunning!

[@luisegutierrezm9051]

Great review as always! My favorite not fountain pen is The Fisher Space Pen, which I got from my visit to NASA 8 years ago, It has the same mechanism of the Side Click.

[@JoshuaAllenDeMoss]

Received your letter in the mail from the last giveaway. I really appreciate knowing it was personal, responded to my questions, and wasn’t generic. Thank you! Now perhaps let’s see if I win this giveaway :)

[@JoshuaAllenDeMoss]

And don’t have any favorite ball points yet because I’ve been focusing on FPs, but hope to venture into that arena soon.

[@iliyana006]

I was happy to wake up and see a video! Thanks for the review, great way to start the day. :) My pen obsession started long before I found fountain pens and going to a stationary store just to browse pens is still one of my favorite waited to feel good. My favorite wavers between three...the .5 G2, .5 Jetstream, and my Sakura Pigma Microns. I'm not an artist...I just like writing small! You can fit more on one page that way.

[@bokneg66]

Who knew there was a Ballpen Day? I agree though that sometimes a fountain pen isn't the right tool for the job and a ballpen or similar is better. Sometimes. Anyway, that copper one is gorgeous! Thanks for the chance to win it!

[@robertsebastian9909]

I’m new to the “pen on purpose” scene as I like to call it. I’ve been a watch collector for years and have always appreciated a well designed machine for real use. And now, after innocently coming across one of your reviews, I find I am now a fountain pen enthusiast as well. So while I can’t claim a favorite ball point at this time, you have sent me down the slippery slope of a new hobby. And I am smiling all the way down!

[@riseandinspire]

lolll I know the feeling! Welcome in the rabbit hole!

[@curtism5333]

I like these pens. My favourite ballpoint ATM is a side-click type pen as well. It's the Fisher Space Pen FB4. Thanks for another informative review. I wouldn't have known these pens existed without your video.

[@TeapotDaddy]

Great review. My favorite rollerball is the retro '51 torpedo. I got it from a friend for a secret santa and it's lovely to write with ^^

[@gp3633]

Great review as always! My fav go-to ballpoint pen is Bic Round Stic (medium point). It is ultra reliable, always writes no matter how long it's been sitting, no hard starts, no skips. And the ink has good practical properties. "2020 is a dumpster fire"! I'm going to start saying that.

[@johnweichel806]

What a fun pen! Would love to add this one to the collection! Thanks for reviewing it.

[@kelvs77]

Been following tactile turns design for years. Solid designs and machining. Aa for pen i like aside from FP is a rotring multi pen 4 in 1. Had it since college. And im already in my 40's now. Still a joy to use.

[@sarahwillcutts9169]

Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity! I love the G2 refill based pens, but I don't have a go to pen yet...haven't found one I like yet.

[@sarahrichards9250]

Thanks for a great review. My favorite non fountain pen is the pilot dr grip pen. I enjoy both the gel pen and the ballpoint

[@ericrollo615]

What a beautiful pen and such a novel idea with the single groove. When I used ballpoint pens my go to favourite was a Fisher Spacepen. I loved the texture of the barrel and favoured this over my Papermate power point.

[@user1unknown907]

What an excellent pen! The benefit of having a reliable and durable ballpoint amongst a collection of fountain pens shouldn’t be overlooked in my opinion. I really enjoy the Pilot G-2 for all my non fountain pen needs. Thank you for the thorough review!

[@tomcolvin4065]

Thanks for the review of Tactile Turns new pen, my favorite non fountain pen happens to be another Tactile Turn, the Mover, I have.

[@owenrhys]

Favourite non-FP is the Studio Neat Mark One. Love the simplicity & feel in the hand. Really tempted by this side click though, looks amazing quality.

[@williamkessman5092]

Thanks very much your pen reviews. My current favorite ballpoint pen is the Ohto Rays needle point gel.

[@tadjude7396]

Terrific review of Tactile Turn rollerball. I am a fountain pen fan but use roller balls on carbon requirements. Thanks for the analysis.

[@adamrennie9170]

This looks so good! I’ve all but ditched ball point pens recently, but my wife isn’t on the fountain pen band wagon and I’d love to put this in her journal as a surprise! Thanks for showing them off David!

[@lunaronion9400]

Thanks for another great review, David. Currently my favourite ballpoint is a Caran d’Ache 849.

[@ddsfard]

Thanks for the review. I like the pen. My favorite non fountain pen is the tactile turn bolt pen.

[@Van_Slowfade]

What a great looking pen. I have a bolt action copper model and love it. Thanks for the review!

[@tankazz123]

Great review. It is really great how engaged you are with your subscribers! My go to Ball point was a pilot grip. I relied on that pen for many years. It is now retired and displayed proudly on my desk wall. This pen was the first pen I bought that did not come in a 12 pack or more. It is what triggered my pen obsession. I would love to win a tactile turn pen. Keep up the great reviews.

[@strongbox9849]

Thanks for the review. My favourite non fountain pen is a sterling silver Dunhill ballpoint that has the option to screw in either a 18k dip pen nib with feed or a letter opener under a blind cap.

[@mnemosyne543]

What a cool looking pen! My favorite non-fountain pen is the Zebra Sarasa Clip, particularly in the vintage colors.

[@Vonsen]

This looks great! Currently my favourite non-fountain pen is the Lamy 2000 rollerball--I just love the macrolon material.

[@clarkhiggins6095]

Been watching you for years and really enjoy your reviews, and have made some buying decisions based on them. My favorite none fountain pen is the Pilot G2 0.7mm

[@BBQChickenWings]

My favourite non fountain pen would have to be either the zebra sarasa or the pilot g2

[@luismelgar148]

Hey there, Figboot. I became a fan shortly after acquiring my first fountain pen (a cross peerless 125) a few months ago. My go to non-fountain pen right now is a humble pilot fineliner. I'm new to pens, but I try to learn a little more everyday. Thanks.

[@liberal424242]

There's never been a better time to release a new copper pen model. Looks great!

[@mdk0802]

I’ve always loved Rotring Rapid Pro; the powder coat, knurling, and clicky mechanism makes for an enjoyable pen.

[@momoboy124]

Bought a Lamy 2000 because of your reviews and it ignited a downward spiral into the world of fountain pens :)

[@gsears3]

Great review and exciting release. I enjoy the tactile turn bolt, the Prometheus alpha executive, and the urban survival great tiscribe bolt.

[@graphingwhale4585]

My favorite ballpoint pen is the Cross Edge. It is a very reliable pocket pen that I would often take to school. Now I use it sometimes for small notes, but use my Pilot Vanishing point more. It has a very comfortable and cool Matt finish. I would use it a lot more if the ink in it didn't smell.

[@bestdungeonever]

Thanks for the contest - I’ve been digging the Zarasa Quick Dry for smoothness of gel without smearing

[@Dexter-Lim]

My favorite non-fountain pen is the Pilot G2. Thanks for the review.

[@Richard_Barnes]

They make great pens there 👍🏻 my currrent favourite non-fountain pen currently is the Machine-era classic in stainless steel and Black DLC coating. 😀👍🏻 Thx for the chance David!

[@dalailama8845]

I really love this pen, the industrial design paired with the exposed screws kind of reminds me of the Audemarque Piquet Royal Oak Watch, and I’m sure I’d find myself fidgeting with the grooves and the mechanism. Great review as usual!

[@shmatster]

I love the classic Parker Jotter. My wife gave me one at the start of medical school. I used it every during medical school and residency. It is a great work horse pen, and of course it has huge sentimental value for me.

[@clarkbates6100]

My favorite ballpoint pen is actually one I made myself. I recently got into turning my own pens, and I used a kit to make one from some walnut wood that my grandfather gave me. Thank you for the wonderful (and very educational) video!

[@79charbos]

Thanks for the review. I also love the g2 for non-fountain pen!

[@dannydontgoin237]

My favorite ballpoint pen is the engraved wooden pen my wife and daughter gave to me for my 40th birthday. It was before I got into fountain pens, so at the time it was the nicest pen I owned. It takes Cross refills which are quite smooth. That Tactile Turn pen is really cool! As always, an entertaining and informative review. Thank you for having a giveaway!

[@Scott-wi7rm]

Hey David, great video, happy pen day, hope all is well, I gotta say that is one nice pen, I have a muji I use for my drawings, and that tactile pen has that industrial look, great pick of pen for the review, thank you

[@ORscrubbed]

Awesome review! Will cross my fingers for that copper beauty! TT BAS is my favorite non-fountain pen :)

[@wickerbasket1585]

I love the contrast between the copper version and it's clip!

[@JuceePeachz67]

Great review as always. I really enjoy this video. Nice quality pen. Some of my favorite rollerball, hybrid and gel pens are the Lamy rollerball, Pentel Energel Uniball RE, and the Pilot Hi Tec C.

[@ho2814]

I love that they take the g2 refills. That is my favourite non-fountain pen.

[@georgebodenschatz3944]

Very neat pen. Thanks for the review! My favorite non fountain pen has got to be the Studio Neat Mark One
