Vegas Baby!!!
Here's another beauty from my favorite carver and downright cool dude.
It's 5.20 inches long and weighs 36 grams so it hits all the right notes.
The morta and bamboo look great together!! Feast your eyes!!

He forgot to sand through the skin of the bamboo though!
Nevermind the bamboo, what about that thumbnail!!!!! It looks like it needs some time on the wheel grinder....
Great looking pipe though, love that sort of criss cross texture on the bowl. And the Morta does look fantastic with the bamboo. Excellent contrast. Also love how the stem shaping matches perfectly to the curvature of the bamboo at it's base. Awesome.

Shape reminds me of Sixten Ivarsson's Stanwell 01b. Always nice to have a new pipe! :)
