Been looking at those. I like sandblasts, and some of the Sherlock Holmes shapes are available in that line at very attractive prices. Great score! :clap:
I've been eyeballing the 01 shape they've got--a good looker. I like the gnarled, winding pattern on the B35 above, though. It needed to come live with me.
Very attractive pipe.
However, I do find it very hard to believe someone picked up a new pipe with that particular shape before "chasinghorns" had a chance to buy one. :wink:
Okiebrad--ha! I'm not sure how many styles of these Arklow pipes Smokingpipes commissioned from Peterson--but by the time I got the email, there were only two B35 shapes available. I deliberated for about one half second before I just went ahead and ordered the darn pipe. I usually wait/talk myself out of getting something--then have second thoughts, go back--and it's gone. Not this time!
