Jelling Pipes, Your Experiences?

Good day.
I'm looking at a Jelling estate pipe.
I haven't found many opinions of them, so please share yours.
Thanks.

Good day, Jay
There were two makes of this name, one was American, based in NJ and they stamped their name on pipes made for them by various makers. Another was Danish.
From Pipedia -->

Jelling was a pipemaker in Newark, New Jersey.
Jelling was also the name on a pipe "made in Denmark".
The Jellings were primarily cigar makers and thus their shop was primarily a cigar store. They did purchase pipes from the different pipe factories and had their name stamped on them...

Thanks, Thomas. I did read that but was unable to find any opinions or reviews pertaining to how they smoked.
I'm about to take another crack at our forum's dysfunctional search feature...

I got 2 NOS US Jellings last year. Very inexpensive and mine both smoke great. Blue Room Briars has some NOS Jellings. If I were you, I'd pick up 1 or 2 of those. Cheap enough to make an estate kind of silly.

I have a Jelling Zulu from the 1960's and a NOS. They are very decent pipes for the money. Good drilling and a nice draw.

Thanks, all for the input.
I looked at the other Jellings, but I really like the shape of the estate, so I jumped on it.
Straight & thin with strong and symmetrical taper on it.

woodsroad's custom search in the stickies with thread title " Forum Search Improved!" works well.

Thanks, SP. I'll give that a whirl.
