Big Idea Design LLC

So glad to be rid of my plastic marker and loving using the bolt action brass marker :-) Feels substantial without being too heavy. Love it!

This pen went to a left handed coworker. Everyone at work is amazed by my collection of BigIdeaDesign LLC Pens.

I wish this was available when I ordered the Lookout! Bought it immediately when it became available. Great products.

Quality products! I carry it everyday. Very satisfied!

Thank you so much for sending it over with the requested time frame! I love it. It accommodates, the Zento UBR-ZML-.38, and Signo UMR-109-.38 and their .5 equivalents (will have to take some off the back end like others). It is comfy to write with and now with 4 colors to choose from, definitely do more with less. Will definitely bring this to all the work trips along with the Bolt Action Marker.

I honestly wish I could give Big Idea Design more than five stars, because five just doesn't seem like enough!

I've always had a bit of an obsession with pens and writing instruments. I've tried everything from inexpensive ballpoints to fountain pens, gel pens, and rollerballs, and I'm pretty particular about what I like. What started as a search for one really nice, well-made pen has turned into a growing collection of Big Idea Design products, and I couldn't be happier with that decision.

My collection now includes a copper Base Line pen, the new Bolt Action Multi Pen, four Bolt Action Markers in different metals, a copper mechanical pencil, the Fold carrying case, and a pocket tool. And I can honestly say that the more I explore their products, the more impressed I become.

The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are just outstanding. Everything feels thoughtfully designed, from the materials and machining to the weight, balance, mechanisms, and overall feel in your hand. These aren't just fancy pens and accessories. They're incredibly well-engineered, functional tools that you can appreciate every time you pick them up. I especially love the different metal options, particularly copper, and how the materials develop their own character over time.

One of the things that originally drew me to Big Idea Design was their focus on refill compatibility. I'm extremely particular about ink, especially smooth-writing, oil-based ballpoints that don't smear. Being able to choose a refill that suits my preferences while enjoying a beautifully machined pen is a huge selling point. I love that they understand the importance of both the pen itself and the actual writing experience. The new Multi Pen is another great example of their creativity and ability to combine practicality with really thoughtful design.

And I have to give their customer service just as much praise as their products. I've emailed them several times with questions about specifications, compatibility, and various product details, and they've been absolutely fantastic every single time. They're responsive, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely understanding. I'm the kind of person who likes to know all the little details before making a purchase, and they've always taken the time to answer my questions and help me understand their products. I've never felt rushed or like I was bothering anyone. That kind of customer service means a lot to me, and unfortunately, it's not something you find everywhere these days.

Sure, these aren't inexpensive products, but I don't expect them to be. There's something to be said for investing in quality tools that you actually look forward to using every day. I appreciate good craftsmanship and products that are built with purpose, and Big Idea Design delivers exactly that. Their products have a level of quality and character that makes owning and using them genuinely enjoyable.

What impresses me most is that Big Idea Design seems to have the whole package figured out. Beautiful products, innovative designs, excellent materials, practical functionality, and a team that clearly cares about its customers. It's one thing to make a great product, but it's another to back it up with equally great customer service. They've managed to do both, and that's what has really earned my loyalty.

I don't typically get this excited about a company, but Big Idea Design deserves every bit of the praise. If you appreciate quality craftsmanship, thoughtful engineering, and a company that genuinely stands behind what it makes, I can't recommend them highly enough.

Five stars? Without question. But if I could give them ten, I absolutely would!

Keep up the incredible work, Big Idea Design. You've definitely earned a loyal customer, and something tells me my collection is far from complete!

Love it, thank you!

My experience has been the same, amazing pen, smooth and flawless in mechanics. I got the stone washed Ti as I wanted light and I did not yet have one of those in my collection. Wish I had not bothered with a spare set of those Schneider refills as the ones in the pen are a bit "dry" and skippy. I am going to try to find some zebra JSB .4mm or .5mm which appear to be D1 and compatible wth the Take4, also chatGPT suggested the Uni-SXR-200

Built solid, super functional and I love the fact that there's a pair of tweezers and toothpick incorporated into the pen! Grab one. You'll be glad you did!

I backed this pen on Kickstarter and it is awesome! I was afraid it was going to a thick and clunky like the old Bic blue and white but it was only slightly thicker than other pens I own. The only disappointment is the Schneider Take 4 refills that are included. I know these were chosen because they are color coordinated and easy to identify through the window, but sometimes as I'm writing the ink flow just stops mid word and doesn't restart very easily.
The pen itself does not disappoint! I just need to come up with a way to use other refills and be able to identify them easily.

Amazing quality Amazing price.

Amazing quality amazing price.

EDC Pocket Pouch

Awesome!
