The Zebra F-402 has been my go-to pen for almost a decade. I like the way it looks, and the rubber grip. I too have the same issues with the pens that others have: The barrel cracks where the cone threads into it, the clip rusts, and the stainless steel sleeve slips down the barrel into the grip. The rusty clip just shows long-time usage of a pen that's ""ridden hard and put away wet"". I don't mind that much. For the spitting barrel at the threads of the cone, I just wrap the barrel with Kapton tape (cellophane tape stretches too much to last). The big unrecoverable issue is the sleeve sliding down into the grip. It just happens if you click the pen too much. I've tried Crazy-gluing the sleeve to the barrel, but the fix won't last. It's the primary reason I buy more pens. I think I'll try a 7-series pen next.

I love the F402 but like others have commented I do not like the refills! Please, please, please go back to the original. Despite, the refill problems this pen is still 5 stars. I love the weight of this pen. It's a must have pen for all lefties!!!

Love the F-402 it has been my favorite but the refills are unpredictable. Some run till completely out of ink, unfortunately many have started skipping while displaying plenty of ink.

I purchased a two pack and while one works great the ink in the second on was not sealed. It migrated to the top and out of the cartridge. While it did not make a mess it made a failure rate of fifty percent of the pens I purchased.

The only pen I use - I'd give it all five stars were it not for one problem - the cone threads break and so the cone comes off. I took a pic of six 502's I've owned in which this has happened (but I can't find a way to mail it to you!).I can't see if the sheath the threads lie into is plastic or metal, so I can't see why it happens.

This is an absolutely amazing pen for the time that is lasts, it writes deadly smooth and feels just right in both weight and length. However, I find that after about a week or so, they just stop working. In regards to ink flow, despite the ink cartridge being full, the ink flow begins to get rough and then just stop all together, and very suddenly. Again, big disappointment considering the duration and life of the pen, hence my rating. In my opinion, no pen is worth anything if it doesn't write!
