If there’s anything that the pandemic has helped us appreciate, it’s the importance of first responders on a personal as well as global level. Every day, they stand at the front lines, ready to protect and assist the communities they’re in. October 28th is National First Responder Day, and Fisher Space Pen has decided to honor these brave men and women with a new series of Space Pens inspired by each of their professions.
Writing down critical information and situational details are part and parcel of first response, and the Fisher Space Pen is one of the most versatile and reliable writing instruments out there, especially during emergencies in less-than-ideal environments. The First Responder Series features Fisher’s Cap-O-Matic design, a model specifically chosen for its easy single-handed cap activation along with its added durability thanks to a matte black coating all over its body.
The key design feature of the series is the colored line down the middle of the pen’s barrel. The line’s color depends on which of the five professions the pen was inspired by, and a portion of the sales of the pen goes to a related foundation. For law enforcement, you get a blue line, with the proceeds going to the Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.) Foundation. Firefighters get a red line with proceeds going to the Hope for Heroes Foundation, which helps support injured firefighters and their families.
Search & Rescue comes with an orange line, with help going towards the National Disaster Search Dog Foundation. Conservation personnel get an olive green line and whose proceeds go to the National Park Foundation, and last but certainly not least, EMS professionals get a white line, with support for The American Red Cross.
Regardless of which pen in the series you choose, all of them come with the Fisher’s patented Space Pen refill. This iconic refill designed for use by astronauts in space is a cartridge with pressurized ink that gives it the ability to write under any condition. This includes wet surfaces, extreme temperatures, through grease, under water, at any angle, and even in zero gravity.
In addition to your choice of color, Fisher also gives you the ability to have a custom engraving added to the pen, making it an extra special gift for extra special people.
