Design:

I have had several requests to make holsters for the popular Fisher Space Pen series of products. I came across the "Telescoping Space Pen". It is the same size as the popular bullet, but has no cap to lose. The end of the pen simply pulls upwards, revealing the tip of the pen. It uses the same high quality ink cartridges also.

The holster cleverly uses the pen's own telescoping mechanism to secure the pen into the holster.  All while allowing for one-handed operation.

A stiffening rib on the back ensures the tip is held strong even if the pen is not docked.

Instructions:

To lock the pen in place: 

  1. Simply collapse the end of the pen.
  2. Place the tip into the base.
  3. Tilt the pen into the holster.
  4. Pull up on the finger grip to engage the lock. You should hear a satisfying click. 

To remove the pen:

  1. Grip the pen and push downwards. This will disengage the lock, and release the pen.
  2. The pen tip will already be deployed, and already in your fingers.
  3. The detent on the telescoping portion will also disengage. Then you can easily extend it with one hand. 
About the belt loop:

The default belt loop is: 43mm x 6.3mm (1.7" x  1/4").

Because the holster requires a tugging action, both up and down, The loop should have a close fit to your belt. Please send me a message if you want a different size loop. Note: You must send me a message me before purchasing as each belt size requires a new 3D model. This cannot be done post-order. The more accurate your belt measurements the better the fit.

An open clip was not designed in as it is not as strong or durable as a full loop.
