## Description

Bleistifte funktionieren hervorragend auf Rite in the Rain aber manchmal brauchen Sie nur einen Stift. With the all-weather metal pen in matte black, you can trust that your pen will survive in the toughest conditions and the toughest critics. Write on wet paper and upside down with confidence and style. The print cartridge works in temperatures from -30°C to 250°C. The ink will not leak, evaporate or explode in the bag. 5.6 inches long, with a 3/8 inch shank diameter. Black ink

Review: This is the one you're looking for! There is a similar plastic one (that's ok), but this one is all-metal. It's got a pleasant weight to it, and beware the bolt action is more addictive than any clicker to operate - and probably extremely annoying to ppl around you as you absent-mindedly fiddle with it while thinking :)
Review: I’ve been using the Rite in the Rain Bolt-Action Matte Black Metal Pen (No. BK16) for a couple of weeks, and it has quickly become my go-to everyday carry (EDC) tool. Whether you’re working in the field or just need a pen that won’t leak in your pocket, this is a solid investment. Pros: Rugged Build: The all-metal (aluminum) barrel feels substantial and well-balanced without being overly heavy. It’s clearly built to survive rough environments. Write-Anywhere Reliability: Thanks to the pressurized ink cartridge, this pen writes smoothly at any angle, in freezing temperatures (-30°F), and even on wet or greasy paper. It’s particularly effective when paired with a Rite in the Rain notebook. Satisfying Bolt-Action: The mechanism is crisp and dependable. Unlike standard clicker pens, it won't accidentally deploy in your pocket and ruin your clothes. Plus, it’s highly addictive to "fidget" with. Burly Clip: The heavy-duty 1.3mm wire clip is one of the best I’ve seen; it holds tight to pockets or packs and doesn't bend out of shape. Cons: Stiff Action Initially: The bolt-action can feel a bit stiff right out of the box, though it typically smooths out after a few days of use. Body Can Loosen: I’ve noticed the barrel can occasionally unscrew slightly during daily activity. A tiny bit of thread tape or just keeping an eye on it fixes the issue. Ink Shade: The pressurized ink is extremely reliable, but it can appear slightly lighter or more "ballpoint-like" than a deep gel ink. Verdict: If you need a pen that works through mud, sweat, and water, the BK16 is "locked, loaded, and ready". It’s a professional-grade tool that feels more like a piece of gear than just a stationary item. Highly recommended for hikers, contractors, or anyone who values durability.
