Kirk Bosi

I personally love the Bosi. The colors of all the different parts work together well and are aesthetically pleasing to me.

you guys are too funny!

 

[tslex]

"Yeah. And it's deep, too."

Not a big fan of the pencil thin pipe, but considering peck's condition( his wife told me), it is a perfect match.lol

It is pencil thin but very long and hard. In any event, I prefer my condition to yours - after all, you can't shoot pool with a rope.

lol, tying it around my ankle can be bothersome.

Apparently, Thursday night is now Amateur Night at Pipes Magazine, which in this case is a pun that works on many different levels. Read into it what you will. :wink:

That pencil shanked Becker is to die for. Great pipe!

 

[fishnbanjo]

Both the Bosi and the Becker are outstanding, I have one of Fritz Becker's pencil shanks and it is a sweet pipe but that Bosi is amazing, great score, you have impeccable taste.

Damn, I wished I never had listened to my Wife. I only kept my rejects to smoke. I sure miss some of those pipes!!

It is time for a comeback, Kirk!

 

[bosipipes]

Thanks for the Nice comments.

I did start back making pipes this year.

It will be a few more months til I get the web site in order.

I want to get a few more pipes done , than I will open the doors again.

@bosipipes
I'll keep my eye out for the site!

 

[elpfeife]

That's great news. Kirk makes outstanding pipes.

I hadn't been familiar with Kirk Bosi's pipes until I saw a listing on eBay for a boxed set of unsmoked Signature Grade pipes, which were his higher grade. After researching his work and learning that his engineering and craftsmanship is excellent, I placed a bid and won at a surprisingly low price. Saturday morning bargain. I'm collecting pipes made by members of my pipe club, CPCC. So far I have an Alex Florov, a Kevin Arthur, and now two Kirk Bosi pipes. Unfortunately, I've never seen any of these fellows at one of our meetings, but I understand that Alex does come from time to time. He lives a good distance from our meeting site.
I listened to an old interview of Kirk by Olie Sylvester on his OomPaul podcast. You can definitely hear he's from southside Chicago and sounds like a really nice, down to earth guy.

Glad I didn't see that set on ebay, Craig. I would have been very sorely tempted to jump into the fray. I sold my only Bosi a few years ago and really regret it!

Amazing work.
