Pens. I've always needed one for work, and carried a Parker Jotter in my uniform shirt pocket for years. They look good and write well, but they certainly aren't very durable. Especially now that I wear a tshirt and jeans. So, for the past little while I've been looking for a replacement worthy of EDC status, and just placed an order for a Smith & Wesson pen about 20 minutes ago.

I could have carried on with a Bic, but figured its as indispensable a tool as a knife, and therefore worthy of an upgrade. I don't think we've ever talked about this here, so do any of you feel the same way? What are the rest of you carrying on a daily basis?

Please, someone else chime in. Lol. I can't be the only one with this fetish!

Pics and a review to come.

I have used a Zebra F701 for several years. Writes better than I can and I haven't torn it up yet. Looks decent to.

And I like them to this point I will state again.

I am sorry but I only use Parker Pens since they offer the greatest reliability. You can always replace the ink internal pen to save the outer casing. And I prefer the solid steel pen not the upper half plastic version. mitunnelrat in my mind you have always had the most durable pen out the for the cost.

My Zebras are metal. As g as well. And you. An get refills as well. I think I gave like $6 or 7 for it. Wasn't much.

I used to have a Cross set. They were in e but the mechanism didn't Hold up, for the price in particular.
