There are plenty of legitimate reasons other than self-defense (which is obviously the most important) to carry a tool like the Pointie Tactical Marker. You can break glass in the case of an accident. You can punch holes on the go. You can engrave things like car doors, hand dryers and street signs… just kidding about those, so don’t be a dick. The point is, there are a lot of good reasons to have something like the Pointie Tactical Marker in your pocket, bag or even purse. Pointie is made of 17-4 Stainless Steel that’s been CNC-machined and hardened to condition H900 for maximum durability. It’s sharp like Jimmy John’s is fast, which is obviously a requirement for a lifesaving device, but the coolest part is still probably the fact that it’s disguised in a body similar to everyone’s favorite permanent marker.
