Carrying a pen with you all the time can be inconvenient, but it becomes an indispensable tool if you suddenly need to sign something.
With this in mind, the Korean company Hancept has created the Hancept Zero MK2 pen, which transforms from an ultracompact flat card into a writing instrument in seconds.
This foldable pen is only 2 mm thick when flat, about the same thickness as two stacked credit cards, making it thin enough to fit inside a wallet.
It is made of a 6000-series aluminum alloy, 316L stainless steel, POM (a durable plastic), and N52 neodymium magnets. Despite this, the pen is ultralight, weighing only 28g, making it easy to carry every day.
The pen’s transformation depends on a magnetic folding mechanism, taking only 4 seconds to go from a flat card to a functional pen. The pre-sale has already started, and you can buy one for $169, with shipments expected to begin in August 2025.
