Many of you have posted a lot of nice comments on my first pipe that I made, and thank you. Some of you asked that I let you know how she smoked....well I'm smoking her now, and am very impressed. Great draw, and a comfortable bowl to hold. There is an awful lot of briar, so my hands are barely warmed up. The draw is rather open, and a pipe cleaner passes right into the heel of the bowl. I am surprised how easy she allows clenching, I thought a large freehand would seem hard to control. While I'm typing this, I've been clenching, and it seems natural. The only thing that seems odd is the bit; its lucite, and the rest of my pipes have vulcanite. Feels like I'm biting on a rock.
Nice ash (no comments), and no relights as of 45 mins. I love how the bowl is starting to darken up.
I chose Stokkebye English Oriental Supreme for my maiden run.
