tjameson, that is about my favorite Tsuge I've seen. I'm not grabbed by their high end pipes
so much, don't like the billiards with the bamboo and flowers on the bowls, and their very
best, I'd prefer something else in that price range. Their little pots and brandies are nice,
though some people have found stinger in the stems, which isn't what I'd want. I did like
their little low-end bulldogs; that was a really nice pipe, and price. But this is just a beauty.
Love the trimness and spareness of it. Perfect pipe for Virginias. Good catch!
