Seems like some of the old brands of pipes have become limited online and in pipe shops. Any news on Edwards/Benton, Kaywoodie, Medico, Yello-Bole, for examples. I haven't seen new Bentons for sale in years. I see a few Kaywoodie, Medico and Yello-Bole briar. I think Brylon (wood synthetic product) has ceased being used. Besides Dr. Grabow in Sparta, N.C., and Missouri Meerschaum in Washington, Mo., which U.S. factory pipes are still in production? Just curious.

This is a new brand, but Briarworks makes their pipes in Columbia, Tennessee in a small factory downtown there. Hopefully CrashtheGrey can fill us in on Kaywoodie.

Kaywoodie and its associated brands (Medico, Yello-Bole) is still very much in business, operating under the parent company S. M. Frank (http://www.smfrankcoinc.com/home/).
