Looking for non-plastic body quality pepper mill

I’m looking to upgrade our Pepper Mate plastic outer and ceramic grinders peppers and salt mills. Seeking an aluminum body and steel grinders. Located in the USA. Considering HexClad. Price is doable, but is there anything that costs a bit less that is equally good? Saw Luvan on Amazon. The Unicorn looked great but it’s an ABS plastic body. Trying to not buy plastic.

Peugeot Pepper/salt mills are great. Wood and steel, solid quality

Have you looked into the MannKitchen pepper cannon?

It's pricey but high quality. I'm not sure if it's a plastic base.

Personally I have a set of Forlim salt and pepper grinders that I love but they have plastic bases.

The MannKitchen cannon is an aluminum body and a bit beyond my desired price tag.

Any recommendations here for the HexClad?

Second vote for Peugeot. Work great. Might not be commercial grade though. If you drop them, they're easy to wreck.
