You mentioned that you're looking for something with a more durable barrel than the Parker Jotter, which I believe are made of stainless steel. If a stainless steel barrel is getting destroyed, it sounds like you might need something really tough. Could you say a bit more about how you use your pens and how they tend to fail?
If you need something that tough, I definitely would not recommend a fountain pen as others have. I love fountain pens, but the nibs are fairly fragile and they do require a bit of upkeep and occasional maintenance.
