The Bolt was our first retractable pen and second pen that we released via Kickstarter, way back in the day. Over the years, we’ve made minor design changes to increase the functionality of all of our pens, but the Bolt V2 was our first to have multiple design changes applied in one iteration, thus necessitating the “V2” addition. The Bolt V2 features a standardized length for both the ballpoint and rollerball versions. The movement of our J-slot up towards the top of the pen allowed for more internal clearance and with a few tweaks we perfected just the right shape of the slot making actuation effortless. With the addition of an o-ring on the lower body, the Bolt V2 will no longer come unscrewed when it’s pocket-carried.
