Howdy, I have a Zebra F701, and I love it. But there are plastic internals. I love the affordability, scratch resistance, and durability of steel for pens. I've used pens as door stops in an emergency before. I'd like a full steel pen.

What are some all steel pens to look out for?

Just swap out the internals with the clicker from an F702, that's what I've been doing for years.

EDIT: a space

SECOND EDIT: Also put a space pen refill in that sucker, you deserve it. Just make sure to pull the little plastic bit in the tip.

I've been pretty satisfied with the rite in the rain pens. The ink is pretty nice for writing in all conditions. They have a pretty wide variety to choose from.
