Krazy for Kaywoodie

randelli · Dec 3, 2015

I don't know what the draw is; but I am hooked on these. I only have three at the moment, a white briar 14, a 98S, and a white briar 01, but I have a Canadian on the way. Here is the harem so far...

The 4 will satisfy my basic shapes and go from straight to full bent. What should I be on the lookout for next?

davet · Dec 3, 2015

More, always be on the lookout for more :mrgreen:

randelli · Dec 3, 2015

Right?
I just finished a bowl of Va/Bur/Lat/Per in the bulldog. It smoked very well

The bulldog and yacht have 3 hole stingers; but the billiard has a 4 hole stinger. I am on the billiard with an aro and it is pretty nice and cool.

I'm on the lookout for a Chesterfield. It was kaywoodie's version of a peterson system pipe. I think it only came in churchwarden size.

papipeguy · Dec 3, 2015

I only have one but it's a beauty. 2008 New Era Dublin.

gambit88, The Chesterfield could be had in smaller sizes as well. There are interesting post-war Chesterfield revival pieces that are quite normal in size.
Randell's, Welcome to the support group, I mean enablers, erm... I mean club.

FYI, all of the new production Kaywoodies are now standard push stem without the stinger. Very nice pipes for very little money. WVsmokeshop has a nice selection to choose from.

michiganlover · Dec 4, 2015

I have a Kaywoodie White Briar full bent, mine gurgles like crazy though even with the stinger removed.

I really wanted a Chesterfield myself when I first started smoking and adding to my rotation of pipes. I found a Yello Bole Chesterfield and still have it. Its a very nice smoker which I put very close to as good as my Savinelli Dry Smoker. A nice way to get a Peterson copy P-Lip. There are a few System Pipe copies if you watch for them. A SWISS, A Savinelli, A Well Pipe, & WDC come to mind. I don't even have a Peterson at this time. I had a small one but sold it. The Dr Grabow Omega is not a system pipe. They pop in eBay from time to time.
As purchased:

After some TLC:

I also have a miniature:

randelli · Dec 4, 2015

That's beautiful Hawke! I need to learn how to do a little TLC on mine. Especially the bits.

mso489 · Dec 4, 2015

Mine aren't select, but good little burners -- a Ruf-Tone Drinkwell author and a push-bit straight panel pot Saxon. I'll take a look at the WV site, but I have too many pipes. Hard to say it, but true, true. I go for a smoke and pick one off the rack and say to myself, "Oh, I remember this!"

gambit88 · Dec 4, 2015

@Buroak,
I didn't know that. All the Chesterfields I've seen have been churchwardens. I do have a WDC Wellington that smokes well and a Yello Bole Chesterfield that's in the restoration process.

Sitting out on the patio with my three kaywoodies

I have some virginia / DFK coin for the yacht, VBLP for the bulldog, and virginia / cavendish for the billiard, in that order. It has been drying out all day so it should be a good time.

davet · Dec 6, 2015

I like that dawg : puffy

If you are wanting to add to your Kaywoodie line check out ebay. They are all in different conditions and prices. Most appear to be in quite good shape. A 1940's Bulldog went begging over the weekend.

bonehed · Dec 7, 2015

Just won this, apparently unsmoked and apparently '38 Yello-Bole:

randelli · Dec 7, 2015

Nice!
I missed a billiard by 50 cents... 50 CENTS! I let another one go when it hit $31.
Yep, I am a cheapie

joshb · Dec 8, 2015

If i can ever figure out the process for pictures on here ill post them. A friwnd gave me a Kaywoodie Standard a while back. It needs a little resto work, but does smoke very nicely. Some very nice looking pipes on this thread indeed! Already giving me ideas and got me searching fore more!

Josh-
You need to upload your photos to an online site, like photobucket, to be able to link to the thread (s). After that it is pretty easy.
You wojld go to the picture you want to post, click on the share icon, and copy the url. If you notice, there is a little grey box with IMG above the text box when you are posting. Click on the box and paste the url.

I don't do it that way, upload to your forum album and then post to the thread.
