I've been lusting after L'Anatra pipes with the Pettinate finish for a while, but I've held back and watched them come and go. That all ended when I saw this little number. Here's my new L'Anatra pettinate bent billiard.

I'm actually excited over a pipe purchase. I'm a nerd. :puffpipe:

WOW! That is an amazing finish. I love the 'hood ornament' on the stem.

Speak for yourself man, I'm a nerd :lol: I should get a tattoo across my chest, in Old English, that says "Nerd Life"
Thanks for the compliments. I am smitten with this pipe. Hope it smokes as good as it looks.

Nice looking pipe, looks like it will be a great smoker. I like the rustication. You're not the only one here who gets excited over a new pipe.

Don't get my wrong, I always look forward to receiving a new pipe, but this time I feel like a kid waiting on his mom to give him a mixer beater with chocolate icing on it. :)

Congrats on a great looking pipe. I am sure it will be a great smoker for you. I always get excited when waiting for a new pipe. If the day ever came when I wasn't totally psyched to get a new pipe, I would probably give up the hobby.

Woo-hoo! :clap: Great looking pipe -- and a very distinctive finish. It should be a joy to hold and admire.

Plus, L'Anatra is a top notch pipe. Those Italian stems are sooo comfortable in the mouth.
Now, you'll be doing the pee-pee dance until it arrives. :lol:

When you get old, getting a new pipe is one of the joys left. If that be nerdsmanship, I join. Please let us know how it smokes.
