Thanks all. I'm pretty excited about this one... but then I've been excited about all of my pipes so far
Roth, thanks. A pipe seems to have to "speak" to me, for lack of a better explanation. And this one more or less screamed at me. Much like my Nording Signature did. Each pipe I own is different in one way or another, but I suppose they do reflect on my style, aesthetics, and preferences, whether kind of rugged looking like the freehand signature, or smooth and flowing like this one. And when I smoke them, I take a look at them and see which meets my mood, so to speak. This one will definitely come into play in my selection.
I'm pretty excited about this one.
Thanks again everyone
