My penmanship is withered chicken scratch thanks to years of paperless endeavors, but this bullet pen looks intriguing for the two or three times each year that I need to write something down on paper.

And lest you think it’s merely a pen shaped like a bullet, let me tell you that it also writes upside down and underwater all NASA-like. It can even write on top of grease and oil. This is an extreme pen for extreme poets.

It costs $25. Not bad for a bullet pen. Forget about stuffing it in your carry-on for a little Sudoku on the airplane, though.
