I recently purchased this one from Smoker’s Haven, and it’s really a lovely looking pipe. I haven’t smoked it yet, so we shall see how it performs.
I bought it based upon the listed information, which said there was no date code on the pipe. After emailing the seller, it turns out there is indeed a date code: “9”. This beauty was hand crafted by Bill Taylor in 1989, which just so happens to be the year I was born. I just scored myself a birth year Ashton Sovereign!
