. Mr Bang came in today, very clean, 1 retort, loaded some 13 year old London Mixture gifted to me by Larry Rosh, pipe weighs 76g. Clenches very nice, good button, what's not to like.

I've always thought that people with a bent pipe in their clench looked odd when they tried to smile, but you pull it off very well. Nice pipe!!! And, it obviously brings a smile to ya.

That is a very attractive pipe.

Did you trade your hairbrush for it?

Just out of curiosity, with a full bowl how long of a smoke does Mr. Bang deliver?

Hunt not trying to nurse it I made 1.5 hrs on the porch, could make over 2, this pipe is the coolest I have ever smoked, briar does not get hot. I belive it's older than 1984 as Copenhagen is spelled with a C not a K as they started in 1984. It was not smoked a lot, the thin rim is like new. I really like this one.

That pipe was made for you Bradley, and at 76g for a pipe that big it must feel quite light, great pick up!

I agree; nice pipe! I keep some giant pipes also, for when you want a hr+ smoke.
And let that mustache grow! Big, bushy mustaches really are a flavor savor for hrs after your smoke. My wife always asks me why I roll my lip up.

I had a rather large S Bang but could never bring myself to smoke it, was a very high grade unsmoked which ended up as trade fodder for my Teddy Knudsen, still have 2 Bang pipes but one has been lost in the cardboard box shuffle where at least another 1/2 dozen of my pipes live. Smoke it in good health sir it fits you very well!

That is a lovely pipe - shape, size, grain - the lot! I take it you have a bald shaving brush as the badger hairs seem to be stuck to your chin... :lol:
