John Wayne may have unknowingly characterized what it’s like to be a first responder or EMS professional in the 21st century when he said, “Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyways.” Globally we have all witnessed the determination of EMT and Medical staff members, courageously putting their own lives in danger to help others, all for the greater good of humanity. This selfless act is nothing new for EMS, and pandemic or not, these professionals continue to carry on the tradition of being Brave & Bold. Everyday. Fisher Space Pen is proud to honor and support all EMS with the New EMS White Line Cap-O-Matic.
The NEW non-reflective, matte black Cap-O-Matic with the EMS Thin White Line printed down the face of the Space Pen’s clip and barrel shows our support for Emergency Medical Service personnel and the work they do. Whether you’re an EMT, family member of an EMS professional, or anyone who supports our EMS community, you won’t find any better way to show it than buying the NEW Cap-O-Matic EMS Thin White Line Space Pen.
At Fisher Space Pen, we note several models of pens that we consider to be the “backbone” of our business. While the AG7, Bullet and Shuttle Series pens have always been the stars of the stories, the classic Cap-O-Matic Space Pen has truly been the blue-collar, workhorse of the bunch. Single hand activation makes this model the pen of choice for construction crews, law enforcement, firefighters, military, first responders, medical professionals, outdoorsman and women and anyone who demands dependability in their writing instruments. The non-reflective matte black powder coat finish is durable, while aesthetically appealing to the eye. The creation of the Cap-O-Matic allowed Fisher Space Pen to offer the same technology used by astronauts, in a single hand activation but at a price that everyone can afford!
The Cap-O-Matic line utilizes cap activation to extend and retract the point, and each carries a gas pressurized PR style ink refill cartridge, which means that they feature all of the unique capabilities that are synonymous with Fisher products: they will write upside down, at any angle, under water, through grease, in extreme temperatures (-30 to +250 degrees F), on almost any surface, three times longer than the average pen, and, of course, in the gravity free vacuum of space.
All Fisher Space Pens are lifetime guaranteed for quality against all manufacturing defects.
THE FISHER SPACE PEN STORY
Fisher Space Pen rose to prominence when founder Paul Fisher invented a retractable, pressurized pen called the Anti-Gravity 7 (#AG7) that worked flawlessly in zero gravity aboard the first manned Apollo mission in 1968. Five decades later the company continues to thrive with pens still flown aboard every manned space flight.
After Paul Fisher earned NASA as a customer for his revolutionary Space Pen, he continued to focus his efforts on developing unique, quality products. All Fisher Space Pens are handcrafted and able to write underwater, over grease, at any angle, upside down, 3-times longer than the average pen, in extreme temperatures ranging from (-30°F to +250°F), and in zero gravity.
"People find that our technology is by far the most reliable from both a shelf-life and environmental standpoint." says Cary Fisher, now co-owner and Paul's son.
One of Paul Fisher's first ideas was for the iconic Bullet Pen, named for its sleek rounded ends. This particular Space Pen is in The Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection as a symbol of American industrial design. This mid-century modern pen is still available today in 16 colors and finishes and remains one of Fisher Space Pen's most popular gift items.
"The stick pen is a consumer-industrial product," Cary says. "The Space Pen is a gift item."
Fisher's varieties of pens - such as the Trekker Space Pen comes with a breakaway lanyard, making it easily attachable to a belt loop, backpack, purse or climbing gear - are manufactured and assembled in the company's 30,000-square-foot warehouse in Boulder City, Nevada.
Approximately 65 employees create the company’s unique line of high-quality writing instruments. “Our whole culture is to treat people with respect and dignity. I know everybody by first and last name. Every job is valuable to the company,” Fisher says. Today, Cary runs the company with Donald “Dock” Wong, who has been at Fisher Space Pen for almost 50 years.
Cesar Reveles one of their plant managers and loyal employee for 27 years notes, "We're a small company, but we're all focused on one thing: making a great product. We’re upholding the whole notion of 'Made in America,' which, I think, still counts."
