Notes on Copper:
This is a disclaimer for all you folks who slept through high school chemistry class or somehow not aware of the nature of copper. All metals will change colors and looks over time depending on use, environment etc. This is especially true with copper. This means it may get a darker, may change colors with patina, or it may get shiny and polished where it is rubbed by another material (like say your pocket). Take those pennies out of your pocket and see how different they all look. Well there ya go: that’s copper! If you want to keep your copper all shiny and new you will have to keep cleaning it with any of the homegrown solutions you can find with an internet search. OR, you can accept that what makes copper a cool material is that your piece will change over time and tell its own stories and truly become one of a kind.

Ready to Write
Tactile offers several different mechanisms to fit your writing and carrying style. The classic Bolt Action gives you a functional and fun way to deploy your pen. A simple flip of the thumb gets the tip out, and an equally simple and satisfying press retracts the tip. You will find yourself playing with the mech for hours, and the low profile design keeps unwanted deployments at bay.
Putting the "Tactile" in Tactile Turn
Tactile's signature texture and finish shows off their attention to detail and precise execution. Micro ridges span the length of the pen body, with a clean, satin machined finish that looks great and feels better - giving you a solid grip wihtout being aggressive to the touch.
Which Pen Is Right For YOU
Tactile offers pens in three different lengths to fit your needs: Standard, Short, and Mini. The Standard size uses the Pilot G2 ink cartridge and is the workhorse of the lineup, perfect for any occasion and easy to write with all day long. The Short uses the Schmidt EasyFlow ink cartridge and mixes ease of writing and carrying, comfortable for long writing sessions while staying easy to carry in the pocket. The Mini uses the Pilot Mini G2 ink cartridge, and is big enough to write all day while staying most compact of the three.
