   Could not help myself, had to get this unsmoked Preben Holm Private Collection. Came with the hand carved tamp, sock and nice leather pouch.

   Although not my style, that is a very handsome pipe.
   Congratulations.

   I've always been crazy but it's kept me from going insane.

   Beautiful, handsome. Just one question.... will it remain "unsmoked"???
   Congratulations on the acquisition.

   I love the grain.
   You can't go wrong with a Preben Holm.
   I have one and love it.

    Preben Holm's pipes are great smokers. I had several in my youth. They are very collectible now.
    With grain like this one has it's easily worth a mortgage payment. It's one beautiful pipe.

    That's a beauty, never been too sure about squared off edges on a pipe but that ones looks fantastic. Amazing grain too, hope she smokes as good as she looks

    Agreed, hope it smokes as well as it looks. A great looking pick up.

    That is beautiful. I was wondering being a clincher, is it heavy?

    Nice! and you will not be disappointed in the smoke. They are typically a nine inning pipe having a huge bowl capacity.
