Hi, Indiegogo. We’re YSMART. We design and make cool EDC products. After the success of our TIPEN 1.0&2.0 with 5000+ backers and 10000+ products fulfilled, we received a heap of great feedback. Now we are glad to be back with our Indiegogo #6 TIPEN 3.0.

We push the further introduction of brass along with the titanium version and new well-designed patterns to provide a richer product for the new EDC lifestyle.

Tiny appearance, huge functionality.

TIPEN 3.0 is made to be minimal. Measuring just 6cm long, TIPEN 3.0 stays true to its roots. No one will know it’s there until you use it.

Carry it loose in your wallet, add it to your keyring, attach it to your backpack, and even use it on the zipper on your jacket. You’ll never be without a pen again.

Write anywhere, at any time.

TIPEN 3.0 is a rugged, powerful tool, packed into a tiny frame.

This amazing design is made of signature brass or solid ultra-tough Grade 5 titanium. It not only looks great but is practically indestructible.

The tip is made from silicon carbide, it’s amazingly strong, measuring an insane 9.5 on the Moh’s hardness scale. To put that in perspective, diamonds come in at 10.

And it’s not only made for writing. The sheer strength of the silicon carbide ballpoint tip makes it able to easily open packages, pry off lids, open cans and more. As a super pen tool, it is designed to last forever.

We wanted to do something special with TIPEN 3.0. So, we’ve developed five engraved treatments that elevate the pen from a rugged EDC tool to a piece of functional art, that you can carry with you every day.

Our engraving process uses a high-powered FIBER laser to remove micro pieces of metal, so the engraving is actually recessed into the surface of the body. This adds a permanent, tactile pattern to your TIPEN 3.0, which feels good under your fingers, and provides a better grip when you’re writing.

We created the original YSMART TIPEN 1.0 & 2.0 as a rugged, tiny EDC pen that you could take with you any use anywhere. We made it because we wanted a better way to always have a pen available, something you could add to your EDC and outdoor kit.

New for TIPEN 3.0, we’ve not only added our unique fiber-laser engraving with five cool styles to collect, but we’ve also added a brand-new material.

As well as fan-favorite grade 5 titanium, TIPEN 3.0 also ships in all-new signature brass. Brass is a super tough alloy and lends TIPEN 3.0 a cool vintage look with a sleek texture and yellow gold-tone. 

So when the world took a turn for the worse, we wanted to create a product that had your everyday needs in mind. We went back to the drawing board to improve on our previous model and come up with something better. something stronger. something… smaller, while taking the TIPEN to the next level.
