First Ashton, 1988 Taylor LX from Briar Blues , thanks Mike.

That blast on that sucker is amazing, congrats Bradley!

Where does the angst come in?
That is an awesome pipe, Bradley.

Never had an Ashton, hopeing it's a good smoker, Docwatson swears by them, that's enough for me.

Saw those Ashtons in the update today. I love the look of Ashtons and would like to get one someday, when the budget allows. Yours is a beauty, even better looking than the normal Ashton high standards, and Mike has very fair prices at Briar Blues, I'll be looking to do business with him next time I'm in the market for an estate. Congrats and let us know if it smokes like it looks!

Nice pickup Bradley!
There's nothing about that pipe that I don't like. Congrats pal!

Oh. They are good smoking pipes. I've had a few over the years and was pleased with them.

 

[ssjones]

I swear by them too! Nobody does Cumberland like Bill Taylor. That's an early one, good grab! (those are supposed to be the best)

Great blast and a fine specimen of Bill's work. Congrats Bradley!

I think blast really adds interest to Canadians. That's a pretty pipe.

That's a beauty, Bradley! Enjoy it in health and happiness.

Wow, what a beauty! More or less my dream pipe. If I hadn't been backpacking this morning you might have had some competition! I have an Ashton 2nd from about the same vintage, and it does smoke extremely well.

Top shelf!
Good grab there!
