Pilot Metro gets my vote. Lamy Vista/Safari- if you can handle the triangle grip section. Kaweco Sports are handy. Not the easiest to write with for extended sessions.
TWSBI's 10ish years ago were prone to cracking. My wife's was one of those. TWSBI changed their formula on the plastics they used on the ECO and I haven't heard much of it. My wife just hangs the purse that had blue ink bleed through above my desk and I'm not allowed to move it.
I started out with a Noodler's something or other. Piston filler, non-flex nib. They no longer make it. They only have the flex nibs (I had one of those too!) It got the hooks in. I then got some Pilot 76g's. They were decent. Like a no frills plastic bodied Metro. More hooks.
