    I bought an Ashton Rhodesian in that finish/stem treatment earlier this summer for my 50th and it is one of my favorite pipes. Mine is a XX, which is a very useful size. What size is that billiard? I love the craggy top. I looked at that pipe several times. Mine is a '98 and had what seems typical for that era drilling issues. It would not pass a cleaner either. Once fixed with a needle file, it smokes much better. I really like these oil treated briar pipes, they just have a particular way of smoking (also have a Ferndown and Dunhill that were treated).

    Let us know how she smokes!

    very nice i really like the rusification and the way the rim is, they really go good together

    As long as I got a pipe full of baccy and a nose full of snuff, I'm a happy camper

    WOW, I can't stand to go to Briar Blues anymore, just too many great pipes on that site. That is definitely the "Pipe of the Week"

    Marry the right person, this one decision will determine 90% of your happiness.

    Does a culture based on seperation and competition, of scientific sophistication and mideval religion, offer happiness even as it ravishes the Earth that sustains it?

    Bill didn't make that many pipes with a plateau top. That particular pipe is superb, congrats on a fine Ashton.

    Thanks all, it should be here this week. Doc, that's part of what struck me with that pipe, I haven't seen another plateau top Ashton before. That is it in my favorite Ashton finish was another bonus.
