Review: Surprisingly Effective a Tool !! - I would highly recommend this as a very good device to have for casual self-defense purposes. The unit is fully functional as a pen, but excels as a tool to support you in a self-defense situation. It would seem that all Cold Steel products are well engineered and made of very good quality materials. I don't believe I have ever purchased anything that has let me down. It is the same for the Pocket Shark. It is very sturdy, and obviously made to take and survive a beating. It works much like a Kubaton. The difference here is that it does not scream out - weapon of expediency, but simply a fat pen. The clip allows this to be mounted on a great variety of places and things. It is light enough to be clipped to the inside of your shirt, or pocket. It is there for you, but out of the way. Like a Kubaton, there are many supported strikes that can be made with it. It performs well here. I am not sure that it can smash through a car window, but it will leave a substantial dent in a door. Not that these are your targets, they are a testament how effective this device would be on a would-be attacker. As well, the Pocket Shark seems to be perfect for using this to support joint locks and joint manipulations. My co-instructor and I have experimented with this, and there are some advantages to this over the classic wood and metal style Kubatons. I think that Cold Steel should also market a training DVD for using this as a striking implement and as well as a joint lock support device. For anyone with some training in self-defense, it would not take long to add this to your arsenal of weapons of expediency. No one wants a fight, but when that decision is taken away from you, it is best to be prepared.
Review: Functional, does what it says and not expensive - I ordered this on a whim but I am quite happy with it. When I received it the first thing I thought was wow this thing is huge, it's like one of those giant markers that sit in the back of a draw and you never use until you move house or something, but then I took the cap off and the tip is a lot smaller than you would imagine for a pen this size, it's actually a fine tip sharpie and works very well with the jumbo grip. It's very light so I now carry it in my laptop case everywhere I go. It's very thick walls and overall size make it a very capable striking instrument, I let loose on a chunk of old drywall in the garage and it did some real damage, you can put some weight behind it and it wont break, very good to know if you're ever attacked by drywall, you can focus a lot of energy into a very small point.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with the instruction video as shown in the photo ?**
A: I'm 6'2" and 200lb...but I'm now 63yo and significantly less robust than several years ago.  I keep this in my 'glove compartment.I slip it into my pants pocket or jacket pocket when I going into a more risky setting.  Mostly, for the feeling of comfort and security of having some influence if a violent situation arises.   The question does apply.  I too ordered the instrument expecting a CD to accompany it, but when the item arrived there was NO accompanying CD of instruction.  But I was still pleased with the item and kept the 'pen' part.  I did want the CD but ....

**Q: Is this item legal to carry in California**
A: Nothing is legal to carry in Kalifornia.  (LOL).  In reality, it is a PEN/Marker.  There are no restrictions on writing devices even by the TSA ('defense' pens, can be taken aboard aircraft).  There is nothing insidious, threatening, or 'special' about this writing device other than it is sturdy enough to use as an implement while defending oneself.  Interestingly enough, I thought it noteworthy to mention that 'cold steel' is a knife manufacturer, and my first impression is that the 'pocket shark' was made of steel.  Much to my dismay it is only thick plastic.  It may be durable, but plastic doesn't do the brand 'cold steel' any favors.  This was probably a profit margin and production decision I surmise...but I digress.

**Q: Where is this Pocket Shark made?**
A: i believe this pocket shark was manufactuered in the great united states of america

**Q: Has anyone had trouble getting past airport security with this marker?**
A: I wouldn’t leave it in your pocket but if they question obviously just show them. Good question

*by R***E on July 1, 2025*

The Cold Steel "pen" is a striking weapon that you can carry in a shirt or jacket pocket. Surprize is everything in street combat. You can even take this in your hand without appearing to draw a weapon. A strike with this is way more likely to end the fight than a strike with your fist or foot. Temple, solar plexus, forehead. chest -- this would be devastating. End the fight. In the street you may face 3 or 4 opponents. You need to take them down fast and for a while. You can take out one or more, before your opponents see that you have a striking weapon. Always surprise the foe. If you hurt somebody tell your lawyer and let him do ALL the talking for you. ALL of it. ALL. You say nothing except that you have a lawyer.
