Icefall
Icefall
Rated 4.8 out of 5 stars
581 Reviews
Exploration in icy conditions requires careful planning to survive the treacherous landscape. Inspired by the natural phenomenon when a glacier moves in a rapid, chaotic manner, Icefall's unique, marbled finish is a mixture of white, gray, and blue Cerakote meant to imitate the crevassed surface of its namesake. Light blue accents on the button and clip bring out the blue in the body while an iceberg icon engraving completes the look and reminds us that there's always more beneath the surface. Offered with an optional Titanium Damascus clip upgrade that's been acid-etched to complete the look. And for those concerned with our haphazard usage of unrelated places and formations like icebergs, glaciers, snowy mountains, and polar regions, we're reminded of a quote by Ernest Shackleton in a fireside chat with Sir Edmund Hillary – "Ice is ice."
Available from January 30 until March 28, 2024

What's an Icefall?
We debated for weeks whether to call it Glacier, Polar, or something more obvious but eventually settled on Icefall after reading about Hillary and Norgay's route to the top of Everest in 1953. Their first camp was below the Khumbu Icefall, a glacier moving up to 1.2m down the flank of the mountain each day – causing massive crevasses and instability.
Custom Cerakote Finishing
Cerakote is a thin coating of ceramic that's applied to the surface of our titanium pens. It's abrasion, chemical, temperature, and scratch-resistant but not proof. Hard wear will still show on Cerakote but we love that it gives us the ability to put colors on our pens without adding serious weight or thickness.

Most stellar pen I’ve seen a while. Far out!
- JSJonathan S.Verified BuyerReviewingRoswell StandardI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 starsYesterdayGreat Pen, Fun Theme!
Tactile Turn pens are top notch, this one is no exception! It looks great, is fun, and writes really well.
I have several seasonal releases, they're all cool and this one joins my pen collection. Side click and switch mechanisms are usually my preference, but I couldn't pass this one up and the bolt action is very smooth.
Great pen and pencil maker!

We are both UFO nuts and this pen is extremely well made. It's a great gift for someone who is interested in anomalous phenomena!
P.S.
We went to the crash site a couple years ago (we were lucky to have found it and the right gates happened to be open), and there is in fact a big hole in the ground!

I passed up a previous seasonal release that called to me, but being a huge X-Files fan, this was an absolute must have. Quality and feel is out of this world! If they roll out a cryptid series, I'm done for. 10/10

This pen is really nice. I have had a couple people inquire so it has become a conversation piece. The attention to detail on this is spot on. I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase.

About Seasonal Releases
If you're tuned into our Limited Release drops of exotic treatments and materials, you probably noticed that they tend to sell out pretty fast. Seasonal Releases are much easier to get your hands on because, instead of a set quantity, they're available for a set period of time. No fast fingers required or having to dip out of that important work meeting to try and snag one from your phone in the bathroom.
