Writing implement with detachable stylus

A hand held implement comprising:

• an elongated body having a first end, a second end and a removable stylus clip;
• said first end further comprising a tip;
• said second end further comprising a rotating locking device axially mounted at and generally perpendicular to the terminus of second end, to secure the clip to the body;
• said removable stylus clip having a stylus point opposite an attachment end whereby the clip may be attached to the second end by a slide means;
• said slide means comprising slide rails on the second end of the body to engage with a mating slide member on the attachment end of the clip;
• said rotatable locking device comprising a disc shaped member having at least one flat on its outer diameter, whereby the locking device in use will preclude the clip from complete axial disengagement with the body, but a rotation of the locking device to axially align its flat with the slide means permits the clip to translate over the flat and thereby slideably detach from the body.
