I work in the law enforce

I work in the law enforcement feild and love how durable this pen is. I have had too many break in the past. Due to the frquent weather changes I found the zebra refills were not providing what I needed. So now, I use Fisher Space Pen refills and holy cow it made the perfect pen. Only complaint I would have is how weak the clip seems to be. I am constantly trying to bend them back into position.
.Why do you claim that your F-701 pen has a stainless steel barrel when it does not? Magnets do not lie.Perhaps the new F-701 pens DO have a stainless steel barrel,I will buy one and find out with my magnet.However,I do like the pen.Maybe the people who are making this pen for your company are not on the up and up.That is where quality control is important.It just takes a MAGNET!Please do not ignore this review,the way you ignored my first one.
I found an older model last year on the floor of my school somebody just dropped it so I kept it. The previous owner of it opened it up and took out some spring which caused it to wear lot quicker. This one has metal and plastic. I got a new one after that wore out this one had the all metal. This is a very great pain very heavy duty and sturdy and it looks very nice.
Loved the fact these all metal pens are easy to clean at work in the ambulance. Loses all the love for the fact the ink straight up refuses to work. Bought some refills thinking I had a bad pen, still skips, stalls, and stops writing. All types of paper refuses to work. Pretty disappointed it performs so poorly for its price point.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the 701. I have been ""hacking"" the 701 with the 402 for the longest time to make an all metal hybrid. Zebra FINALLY learned we want ALL METAL with the new 701's. Unfortunately, they don't offer blue or bold blue refills. Luckily I just use my metal Fisher blue bold refill.
