This is the third day since I got the pen that I use it.
I felt compaled to add and update to the review I wrote few days ago.
So whats so important you ask ?

Well,People that read my thrads and reviews know I am extremly finiky about the pens I write with.95% of the time I write with my Omas Paragon because its a true pen that was desifned to be used and does that in an amazing way.
I do have few more pens I might take and they are Parker VS and Sheaffer Targa both excellent writer that get close enough for what I ask from a pen.

Now after 3 days using the MB VW I must tell you my eyes are sparkling with pen passion toward this pen,is this an Omas Paragon beatter ? I must do a comparison between the two pens and that I will do in the next few days.
It tool the pen a day to open up completly but it did and it did that in an amazing way.
I got used to the unique curves of this pen very fast and now I feel as it was molded to my hand it feels completly natural as if its an integral part of my hand.The nib feels even smoother then it did in the begining and it gives you all the information of whats happening on the paper and this is a rare trait I dont find in too many pens,it truly excites me and I will be extrmly sad to put it away and not use it everyday,I just cant risk it getting knocked out of the pocket of get hurt while I do my mechanical work in the building.

This is a true writers pen and those who deside to get it will get a pen that both has a subtel and yet beautiful presents and a pen you will not want to take off the paper.

Wow, I just had the same revelation with my new Omas Arte Italiana Paragon. I just posted a review about a half hour ago. This is blowing anything I own out of the water at the moment, so I know what your feeling right now. I have two other pens I'm passionate about, the Namiki Bamboo and the Danitrio Mikado, both have reposed in their respective boxes since this got here.

And I'm also waiting on your comparison of the VW and Paragon. Should be good reading. I'm glad you're enjoying the VW!

I've been thinking about getting a Virgina Wolfe. I own a Paragon (old model) and love it. I can't wait for your review, it might help me make up my mind on the purchase!
