Thanks everyone, it really is an outstanding Charatan. I like it so much that I don't really care if I never own another Charatan. But if I do, it's gonna have to be better then this one.
newbroom - the first time I smoked, I knew....there was a difference between a Charatan, and any other pipe. Don't get me wrong, I have several Savinelli's a Luciano, an Amorelli, a couple original Linkman/Dr Grabow's and they all smoke great. But this Charatan.....the only way I can describe it......like buttered toast.
...And Mr Barnes...LOL....I guess anything about Charatan gets your attention....I'm honored.....Charatan Master Pipe Maker, co-founder of Tilshead. I do have a question for you. So I hope you don't mind I send you a PM. It concerns a James Upshall pipe that a friend of mine has.
