Rest In Peace Chris.
Mr. Falkel,
Great looking website and pens. Thank you.
Anyone know what pen filler is being used?
Edited to add: duh, clicked on the order page and all details are there.
Someone carry one of those on a commercial flight and keep us posted on if it's flyable.

Looks like they use: a standard Cross pen refill that can be purchased at any office supply store.

Hopefully they've noticed a bit of a surge in orders...passed this around and many people have already put in multiple orders.
RIP Chris Falkel.
Ordered mine and it has shipped. Got an e-mail from the Site wondering where I got the info. Received a nice note back to my reply and He wishes to thank all QP's for the post and support.

Gypsy,
Spoke with Mr. Falkel last night and he's floored by the response to this post.
He passed his thanks to everyone who's ordered and
thanks to those who are passing the word!
He's working on a Book on his son's life (The Making of Our Warrior) and will be donating a portion of the profits to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Chris' ODA is helping to write part of it and Steven Pressfield is editing and writing the Foreword. Because he wants to self-publish, the Warrior Foundation put him in touch with me and I'm helping him with the process. We drafted a book cover (front back and spine) and he's thrilled.
He said the process of writing this book has been very theraputic to the healing process...I am honored that he would let me help him with this project.
That is great news, Sir! Quite an honor for you as well, with the assist for the book. I shall look forward to reading it once completed...please keep us posted.
I had received an email from Mr. Falkel this morning to let me know my pen shipped so I wrote him back and mentioned he should join here if so inclined.
Just ordered one, and I'll pass this around to the rest of the company. RIP SSG Falkel.
Received mine, I love it. It's a nice looking pen...feels good in the hand.
Thanks for the link WM. I just ordered one. I may need to dummy cord it.
RIP Weapons Sergeant

I just ordered mine. I'll be sure to pass this on to others.
R.I.P SSG Chris Falkel.
I received one as a gift from one of Chris' teammates. I used it and kept it on me during my patrols in Afghanistan with 1st Bn, 3rd Group last year. Thank you, Mr. Falkel. Rest in peace, SSG Falkel.
Just ordered.

I just got mine. Thank you so very much Mr. Falkel. The book it's a great read so far. I have no son, but there are two teenage girls I'm mentoring, and the book inspires me to influence/raise them to be sheep dogs, and not sheepy damsel-in-distress.
I don't know how others manage to use the pen. It's just simply splendid, looks so good, and top-bottom color coordinated that I'll have to keep it in the case for a display of a warrior's legacy. Great job on the design, Sir.

I use mine every day....and make a point of setting the pen on the table while at meetings. It is a great way to spark discussion on the Falkel family's sacrifice and explain the origin of the pen. Most of the suits around here have no idea......

Got mine at Shot and I love it! I encourage anyone that is a supporter of SF, is long gunner or just wants to help remember another fine man's sarifice to get one ASAP. Thanks.

LOL. Of course you shut down TSA with your battery pack that looks like a 'toe popper'.... but that is a whole other story! :D
I love my two-tone brass bullet pen.
I deeply respect your sacrifice, Mr. Falkel, and your excellent idea to celebrate Chris' life and service with something you made.
There was a great article in last Saturday's (July 4) edition of The Denver Post.
If you're a new(er) member of this board, you should really look into picking up a pen or two ....
