One last PAD to close out the month

[cigrmaster]

It has been a great month for me and PAD so I close the month out with my latest Rad Davis. It is a squat brandy and the first time I have owned this shape. It is similar to a couple of my tomatoes or balls in that it has very thick walls. I am smoking some Wessex Brigade Sovereign Curly Cut in it and it is smoking great. I will be dedicating this pipe to vapers only.

Nice, The old cajun

While that is not normally my style of pipe, it's pretty stylin'. You can see the stellar craftsmanship and the grain alone is superb. Congrats!

You have great taste in pipes. When ever I see one of your new threads about pipes I always have to take a look.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the nice comments. I certainly am having a blast collecting again. This latest Rad, smokes as cool and dry as the others. I am still in awe that I have never needed to soak up moisture one time in any of his pipes that I own. If anyone ever is thinking of getting something new, I highly recommend getting a Rad Davis pipe. They are not inexpensive, but compared to other high line makers, they are a bargain for what you get.

Very nice!! What is the stem extension made of?

 

[cigrmaster]

ejames, I am assuming it is acrylic because I don't think you can get colors like that in vulcanite. It feels like it is at least. It is very comfortable though, very easy to clench.

Well said photoman, I agree.
Very nice pipe Harris. All the elements of the pipe come together and compliment each other so well. I really like the colored inlay on the stem down near where it meets the shank. Great shape and finish of the bowl. Man I may have to go look some more but I'm about to say I never saw a Rad Davis pipe I didn't like. Enjoy!

That one looks like it will hang well. What a blast, Rad sure knows how to draw out the grain. Enjoy!

That is one great looking pipe. The stem just makes it.

 

[philobeddoe]

I love that pipe, that's my favorite shape.

Good buy!

 

[cigrmaster]

Thanks guys, it does hang really well. That stem caught my eye also. As great as Rad's pipe look, they smoke even better. I am now addicted to smoking his pipes. I just got back from a half hour walk with the dogs and in this humidity, I still don't need a pipe cleaner, simply amazing. I probably sound like a broken record about the no pipe cleaner thing, but I just cannot get over it.

Man that is quite the vessel. You have good taste my friend.

I love this pipe! The shape, the extension, the blast... everything is spot-on!
Some may wonder why we seek out artisan pipes. Well, here's a big reason right here.

 

[ravkesef]

a true beauty. enjoy!

 

[lazydog]

Nice looking pipe. Great grain and nice lines. I love the way tan sandblasts darken as you smoke them.

 

[cigrmaster]

Thanks guys, I already have my eye on a couple for September. I am still waiting on my commissioned Rad Davis, hopefully that will be here this month.
