A solid zirconium bolt-action pen from Tactile Turn, built with a smooth mechanical action, precision-milled grip, and heirloom-level durability.
Complimentary U.S. Shipping $100+ | International $350+
The Tactile Turn Bolt Action Pen uses a unique mechanism that advances and retracts the refill with a smooth, satisfying motion. Both the internal components and interior surfaces are carefully machined for exceptional consistency, giving the action its signature feel.
Precision-milled with shallow grooves from top to tip, the body offers a comfortable grip and a nearly seamless design that showcases the craftsmanship behind each piece.
Crafted from solid zirconium, the pen has a lustrous dark gray finish and corrosion resistance comparable to titanium. Dense, durable, and notoriously difficult to machine, zirconium is one of the most premium materials Tactile Turn works with — making this an heirloom-quality writing instrument designed to last for generations.
Weight: 1.6 oz
Dimensions: 5.1" x .43" (diameter)
To install a new ink refill on our pens, you simply need to twist off the tip to separate it from the body.
Because the tip and body are machined together it can sometimes be difficult to see the seam (by design). If you're having a hard time getting a grip try wrapping rubber bands around the tip and body.
Once the tip is removed you can easily install a new ink refill and reassemble, ensuring the spring is properly back in place.

Tactile Turn
Founded in Dallas in 2012 by Will Hodges, Tactile Turn began with a WWII-era lathe in a rented corner of a friend's workshop. Today the company operates out of a 9,000-square-foot facility where every pen is still hand-machined by a dedicated team of machinists — precision writing instruments built to last a lifetime and backed by a warranty to match.
