Finally! I was really starting to feel bad there, hahaha. Interesting your concern about #1 and "artistic license" with what is a cutty. I would consider that pipe cutty as all hell.
Do you own anything other than clays?
@didimauw Only one or two from time to time; never bought a non-clay pipe myself...
@PA Piper Mike No.1 for me as well; it's my favourite pipe shape.
I did not notice that #2 does not have the foot. So this one also took an artistic license
For #1 the hexagonal panel kind of made me think too much artistic license
@cshubhra For me No. 1 is the true cutty shape although I always associate this shape with clay and meerschaum. My favourite pipe shape!I did not notice that #2 does not have the foot. So this one also took an artistic license

@didimauw Clays all the way! I got into clay pipes after seeing re-enactors smoking them at events such as the Sealed Knot, Lace Wars and Redcoats & Revolutionaries. I went to the Sealed Knot Battle of Nantwich last month; they brought the town to a standstill!
Fairly certain I know both carvers (one is a bit more obvious than the other).
I like both but between these two I'll vote for the TOP candidate.

Seems like the top pipe is the winner. No contest. You may as well tell us who carved it, since the bottom one is obvious anyway. They're both beautiful and this is a cruel exercise and you are an incorrigible enabler.

1st one. Actually even more of a gulf then with the other set (the second match up). I really do not like the other one (the second one). I'd trade it for a cob honestly. Though the pipe it's matched against (the first one) is a real gem. Wouldn't be too shocked it it went all the way.
