Last Tuesday night the monthly meeting of the NYC Pipe Club was held and I was firmly in the camp of "no pipes tonight".
However, this pipe just called to me...It was bent, very very light, about 5 1/2 inches long and made by a relatively unknown carver from Dresden, Germany, who I and my friend met at last years' Chicago Pipe show. My friend raves about the pipes he has received from him and so I just had to have it.
Sorry about the poor images taken with my iphone. The pipe has a red toned stain (not my favorite color) and came with a carbon lining. I have been rethinking the carbon liner debate and I know believe that it is a good thing after listening to the pipe videos on you tube provided by JnJ pipes.
This pipe smokes like a dream, right out of the box, so to speak. Great value, pipe cleaner goes straight through. The button is perfect for me, and the weight! I don't have a scale at home, but I'm guessing between 35-40 grams. Really!
