Is the stem pushed in all the way? I hate the way that looks. For the same money Stanwell makes their stems look like they were made for the pipe. Maybe these were practice pipes, to teach the workers how to run the equipment.
Isn't it funny how a pipe can repulse and appeal to different people? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. That said, his Valhalla line has been priced at bargain basement prices for quite a while. Milan used to carry most of the line for about $65 a pipe, and all under $100. His pipes generally have been on the cheap end for quite a while. For several months I was able to buy every one of the pipes in two of the Valhalla style for two at a time. Great smokers, all of them.
This one just happens to not appeal to me. Most of his straight billiards, also, just don't impress me also. But, despite the gag reflex, I bet this one smokes like a champ.

Just looked over there and all of the stems seem to look this way. I have a Nording freehand natural that smokes fine as I hope this one will also.
The different online sites come up with some remarkable bargains. I think the PC pipe buyer works hard at locating lots (groups) of pipes at unusually low prices. I'd never seen a Stanwell for $49.95 until they offered their brushed brown and black series. SP came up with 30% (I think it was) off on Ser Jacopo pipes, but it only happened once that I know of. Tobacco too, if you watch our sponsor sites ... where a lot of the action is. That is an odd stem on the Nording, but I think it's just a style.
