Vegas Baby!!!
But I need to comment on more item. I like my smoking metal pipes, but the kings of the genre are my 2 H. Wiebe metal Radiator pipes. Here's a photo of the bent with sandblasted bowl.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I am very much on the fringe when it comes to pipes. To me a pipe is just a delivery vehicle. I think there is something to be said for Kirsten and Falcon pipes and the ingenuity behind them. They also have a utilitarian aesthetic I really like.
When I was a kid, we had an old Toyota Landcruiser that I thought was the ugliest damn thing I had ever seen. After a very hard winter and plowing through snow, I found out that ugly Landcruiser was capable of getting through crap that left everyone else stranded. I still turn my head every time I see one now. I'll love 'em to the end!
There are obviously some beautiful briar pipes out there, as well as some that look like hell vomited up it's last victim. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and to each their own.
@Ashdigger - If you are up for it, tell me more about this Wiebe metal Radiator pipe.

It took about 8 weeks but they did respond to my inquiries. Unfortunately, I lost interest in that time. But it does seem like production is moving now.
