Here are two large Bari Wiking Handcuts. Both pipes are 8 inches long with 2 inch bowls.

The Volcano has excellent straight grain around the bowl and fantastic birdseye on the broad base underneath.

I love the way this pipe feels in the hand. It has a wonderful organic free form and I like the way the eye follows the shape.
These are, by far, the largest pipes I own. They are also the largest pipes I've ever seen in the wild.

I purchased both in 1984, but I don't remember what I paid. Good memory Haunted!
These are huge pipes. Both are a little over 8 inches long with a bowl depth over 2 inches and approximately an inch and half wide. I have smoked both for over 2 hours and then some, however I seldom do that anymore and find these do well with Va and Va/Per blends that I can set down and pick up later.
Its gives new meaning to an all day smoke. :D
I have looked on eBay for other large Bari Wiking pipes, but I've never seen any offered. I don't think Bari made many of these as they would have limited market appeal due to their size. I would certainly like to purchase some more. They are unique.
