    I've seen worse look wonderful. Looks like you scored a good deal.

    If at first you don't succeed you are running about average.

    Nice score once again !

    "The fact is, squire, the moment a man takes to a pipe, he becomes a philosopher. It's the poor man's friend; it calms the mind, soothes the temper, and makes a man patient under difficulties. It has made more good men, good husbands, kind masters, indulgent fathers, than any other blessed thing on this universal earth."
    -"Sam Slick, the clockmaker" aka T.C.Haliburton

    Does the pipe made in isreal have a star on the stem? If so, I would say it's a Shaping.

    Nice score! They may need work, but hey, that gives you something to do in your freetime

    As long as I got a pipe full of baccy and a nose full of snuff, I'm a happy camper
