About a month ago, thesmokindragon (Scott) and I worked out a trade of tobacco for a briar tamper. I received the tamper promptly and was extremely pleased with the craftsmanship. It was immediately apparent that this was a good piece of briar with some flame grain and birds-eye in it. It had some neat plateau on the top that added to the look of it. See below...

Flame Grain
Bird's-eye
All of this workmanship didn't prepare me for one quality of this tamper that even Scott couldn't have known. It fit may hand perfectly.
The ONLY thing I'd change (which I will be when I actually make a custom order for one of Scott's tampers) on this tamper is that the bottom be round or as close as possible so that when tamping the tobacco, I don't have to twist the tamper in my hand.
So if you're in the market for a quality tamper that looks great and functions wonderfully, I highly recommend picking up one of Scott's tampers.
