So while perusing ebay, I ran across this Ruthenberg. It was in my weight and size range so I contacted seller. He had it as a buy now or make an offer and once I contacted him, he told me he was Hiplainsdrifer from the site. We settled on a price and now this will make my 8th Ruthenberg. Brian has retired from making pipes due to health reasons. I love the way Brians pipes smoke and will be on the lookout for more.
