So I ordered a Bullmoose, smooth finish with light stain, when P&C ran their 20% sale.
It arrived today and I must say I like the looks of this pipe! It is a beauty.
It does have some heft to it, but it is not unwieldy.
I can clench it if need be for short periods. I like the feel of the stem.
However, It is not for the piper who clenches most of the time.
I would love to smoke the pipe right now. Unfortunately I have a lousy head cold.
Wouldn't ya' know it.
