Cutty Madness. Match 4.

[alaskanpiper]

Here we have a natural blast cutty with an elegant asymmetrical stem accent of blue toned stabilized mammoth against a darkly blasted cutty with a horn shank mount and a very special......................feet?

Some of these pipes are distinctive and the carver may be recognizable to many. Please try to avoid guessing the carver in the comments so as not to influence any voters, but feel free to comment on what you like and don't like about each one. Apparently they have done away with the poll feature here, so please cast your vote in a comment and I will count them when the threads begin to naturally slow down.

2 is more cutty but 1 is very sexy, so #1 it is.

 

[MCJ]

#2 -- Dark blast and horn you say? I'm in!

 

[PA Piper Mike]

This was a tougher one, but no. 2 gets my vote. 1 is clean and might have won in a different round, but no. 2 is more my style.

 

[autumnfog]

The first.

 

[lraisch]

Number 2. I'm not sure I would go for such a small piece, but the blast is nice, and it has a classic shape that's appealing.

 

[Coreios]

Again tough hmmm #1.

Two. Looks like a Dunhill morphing into a Larsen Walrus

 

[Winnipeger]

#2. The first one is a nice looking straight egg (I don't see a cutty there) but the colour pallet made me throw up in my mouth a little.

 

[Briar Tuck]

This one was easy. Number 2 gets my vote.

 

[beefeater33]

#2.............. I like the 2 "feet" feature, would be handy to be able to set it down just about anywhere.

 

[Peter Turbo]

#1 light stain/natural pipes and vibrant stems are my thing and i just love the shaping/blast on it.

Number two is nice but handmade pipes with black stems, big 'meh' from me, if getting something commissioned I feel its better to get some thing with some color to set it apart from the millions of factory pipes with black stems. Very well done aside from that, I love the way it sits.

 

[Sjmiller CPG]

No. 2

PIPE #2

This was fairly close for me, I like the natural coloured blast and blue stem, but not as much as I like the little FEET and craggy blast.
