That Grabow 2nd to the left is amazing. Been looking for an Axe-Shape that was in my price range.
She's purdy for sure.
P.S. Pronounciation of Grabow.. Gra(ryhmes with Grey) Bow(ryhmes with so/sew)? Gra (ryhmes with saw) bow (ryhmes with so/sew)?

Be proud my friend, nice collection. I have several Dr. Grabows, some over 30 years old and I rotate them into service regularly. Had some Peterson Sherlock Holmes in a Viscount author just today. I regularly use my Starfire pickaxe for flakes as well. Those pickaxe shapes are rarely seen from other makers.

Thanks all! Have enough now for a decent rotation. Unfortuately the first grabow has a cracked stem that's getting worse. I fixed it with superglue and it held for awhile but I noticed it getting loose again and the crack is bigger. Think I'll turn it into a tamper once it goes.

After only 2 months, I'd say your doin pretty. When I first started, I had only 3 pipes (1 was a cob) for the first 3 months and then this wonderful condition called PAD set in an it was all downhill after that. How do you like the MM 965? I haven't had a chance to try it yet.

First bowel I was up in the air about it. After that it's ok. I would buy it again.

I think looking at pipes is what a woman feels like in a shoe store. I absolutely love that second from the left Grabow.

You may consider your pipe collection humble, but by 1950's standards of old-timers of that era, you have 7 too many! Their single pipe "rested" only when the owner slept.

Nice pipes and wonderful choices of baccy! Good progress for only 2 months in the hobby, like others said. Where'd you get those Czech pipes?

I love that Grabow Viscount and am fond of the GBD as well. A very nice collection brother. Enjoy them and all the others you will inevitably and irrationally spend way too much money on ha ha ha.
