Parker Jotter( the all stainless steel model) for us tie and collared shirt types is a go to "tactical pen" for the NPE etc.
The 701 is not all stainless steel unless you get the tip and clicker part from a 402 and retro fit. Too much of a PITA for me.
Just saw a couple of options for folding knives under 2.5 inches.
DPx HEAT
Boker Plus Pen Knife
I don't have experience with either but I know DPx knives are well regarded and the Boker is very low profile.
Jesus paid a debt he did not owe,
Because I owed a debt I could not pay.
I love carrying my dpx heat, it feels stout in hand plus it has a awesome bottle opener that can also function as a "Emerson wave". Although I mostly use it for beer consumption.
