First impression: Viking Classic and McClelland's Red and Black

Very new
Get a wooden dowel from a hardware store, slightly larder than the hole. Drill,out the hole, apply a little wood glue, and push it in. I have a couple of really old corn cobs that I fixed that way. Then save you up some money and get a nice Savinelli, Peterson, or Briarworks pipe.- rigmedic1
