I own two All steel.. zebra pens.. these are my tactical pens as they don't look tactical at all so they fly into the radar.. something else you can bring with you is a heavy padlock... And a bandana.. slide the bandana through the shackle of the padlock once you're off the plane.. you can then swing the padlock like a bludgeon... A heavy wooden cane is another tactical self-defense implement.. you don't need a doctor's note you can even just say you sprained your ankle if asked about it.. I picked up a super heavy duty wooden cane at tractor supply.. it can be used to jab with or swing at a perpetrator when needed

Traveled international for 40 years now. The advice about not drawing unwanted attention is the best of all. Dilution of assets that could be seen as tactical is excellent but even not wearing a black windbreaker and a wearing a huge black G Shock shock watch……respect for authority. Yes ma’am yes sir etc goes a looooong way. In Africa, Central America and Europe….at least to my experience…….if you have a tac flash with an aggressive bevel that unscrews…..unscrew it and put it in with electronic gizmos far away from the flashlight itself too…..

Love your video. Thank you. I am a former ex Federal cop. You always take your chance that it can be confiscated. Either you go to an airport or a Federal builing. Pro tip - long lines, busy time is in your favor. Also, look at a TSA agent, if he /she looks so serious or dedicated - take a diff line.

I have an atomic bear pen coming for my son (defender) it suits his likes, my ex his mom (Rebel) because its sleek business looking style suits her work position. For myself since i drive all day for a living and am exposed to dirt, grease oil etc and i interact with customers and occasionally law enforcement i got the Stealth pro for its discreet and unassuming design that fits the environment I'm in. In my area anything at all carried for the purpose of self defense is considered a prohibited weapon and a person could be charged. Thats why i love these pens, all three of us can legitimately and honestly say its meant first and far most as a writing implement and for emergency extraction if breaking a window is necessary. Although i have no desire to leave my country all your points are ones i have held since i was young when looking for a pen i liked to use, they had to be solid and feel good in the icepick grip.

I have a Universal permanent marker repacked with G10 to a sharp point. Open the cap and it looks just like a felt tip. I haven’t found a less conspicuous option. That said… it’s not a pen… it has one pokey function. (CRKT pen is pretty sleek, not too tactical looking, but the branding is a give away. Maybe that Rebel brand is less well known.)

@NTC Reviews i have a tactical pen since 2018 but I seldom EDC it even locally since I have a boot knife+1 small fixed blade/neck knife and I have never traveled overseas with it. Though rarely travel overseas/once-twice every 3 years for long stay1-18 months i prefer to reach my destination and seek out a sporting goods store buy a new knife/utility/self defense purpose and if on return its on my check in luggage then it's mine to keep otherwise I'll just give it away/friend...or becomes part of my souvenirs.

@NTCReviews unfortunately, the TSA may very well do that. Unlikely. My remark is that by having paracord attached, it just brings unwanted attention to it.
