What's up y'all, hope everyone had a great weekend and enjoyed a bowl or two of bliss. I Scored this unsmoked Arley Curtz rusticated billiard with exotic wood shank insert (not sure what type of wood though) this weekend for a great price. From the research I have been doing on the internet and on the forums, i've heard a lot of good things about him and his pipes. I don't think he has a website though, at least not one i could find. I know the Tinder Box in Salt Lake City has a few of his pipes for sale but not sure if they carry them on a consistant basis since the new owners took over a while back. He shapes from home now but i can't find a current website. Oh well, curious to try this one out and see if he lives up to the reputation others have given him.
Anyone know what type of wood the shank extension is, perhaps?
