M/F 701 Stainless Steel Mechanical Pencil and Ballpoint Pen Set, Fine Point, HB Lead and Black Ink, Ideal for Tactical Use, 2-Pack Gift Set (10519)

If you're looking for a durable pen for home or field use, this pen will work well. It's not heavy or feather light and it grippy under dry or lightly damp conditions. It works well with Rite-in-the-rain paper or any paper for that matter. It's a mechanical pencil that takes standard lead refills. The eraser is something to be desired but I cross out a lot anyways when scratching down thoughts in a notebook. Not for carpentry, mechanical pencils and rough wood are not good friends, but for paper this will work. And if you drop it, its shiny, heavy and easy to stop and won't travel far and it will work afterwards. Highly recommended. Get 2 if you can.

Upgraded to the 701 pen awhile ago. I like blue ink, and most are shipped with black. So I also buy blue ink refills for my new black pens. Decided to buy this nice set and try the pencil. I guess it's not a big surprise that I like the pencil too. I don't use a pencil all that often, but sometimes I just want to sketch something out. Certainly easier to work through an idea in pencil than redrawing in ink. This pair looks 100% authentic, just like my current pen. Both items in the set work well out of box, and I would purchase this again if I lost them. The main feature of these is the great looks and durability. They also have a nice solid and heavy hand feel.

This mechanical pencil has a comfortable length. The stainless steel barrel gives it a solid feel, and the knurled portion of the barrel ensures a secure grip. An eraser is underneath the cap. Recommended.

The Zebra M-701 has been my go-to writing instrument for years, and for good reason. Here's why I highly recommend it: Durability: The stainless steel barrel of this mechanical pencil is incredibly durable, making it ideal for everyday use. Despite its solid construction, it's surprisingly lightweight, which adds to its overall comfort. Plus, the sturdy design means it can withstand the occasional drop without any damage. Smooth Writing: The medium point 0.7mm lead provides a smooth and consistent writing experience. Whether I'm jotting down notes or sketching out ideas, the pencil glides effortlessly across the page, resulting in clean and precise lines every time. Comfortable Grip: The knurled metal grip of the M-701 offers a comfortable and secure hold, even during extended writing sessions. It prevents slipping and fatigue, allowing me to maintain control and focus on my work without any discomfort. Professional Appearance: The sleek stainless steel design gives this mechanical pencil a professional and sophisticated look. It's perfect for use in the office, classroom, or any setting where you want to make a polished impression. The only minor drawback is that the pencil is a bit heavier than some other models, which may not be to everyone's preference. However, I've found that the solid feel of the pencil actually adds to its durability and gives it a substantial, quality feel in hand. Overall, the Zebra Pen M-701 combines durability, reliability, and comfort, making it an excellent choice for anyone in need of a high-quality writing instrument. Whether you're a student, professional, or creative enthusiast, this pencil is sure to exceed your expectations.

I got these to have a durable, all metal writing utensil. I tend to use pencils more often. The eraser wears pretty quickly and once it's about half spent you can't use the rest of it, which is pretty bad. I have a replacement pack of erasers that I bought separately. This is my main complaint, but other than that it feels good in the hand and is well balanced. The pen is also pretty good, though heavier towards the writing tip. I had difficulty getting the pen open the first time but after that its fine. I like to twirl my writing utensils between my fingers and I only drop them occasionally, though when I do I am pretty sure the whole office hears it due to the metal construction. The knurl can be a bit rough on the fingers, especially the pen. I do prefer them over my old plastic writing utensils and I'm satisfied with my purchase.

I've only used these a few times since receiving them, but they feel good in my hand and seem quite rugged.

Very nice and a good price. Purchased for a coworker starting school

Great pin love how it feels and writes
