So I grabbed me some Escudo Navy De Lux, let Jake out the front door and we walked the driveway. Hand fit, really nice. Being a churchwarden this this is a holder and not a tooth clamper but it is long enough that the arm is not bent too far as to become uncomfortable for a long walk. Very cool, dry and draws very well. The navy smokes slow so we walked around the front acre for a while and only lit it one more time. I love the hand feel of carved anything and this one is nice.
Since this is such a looker and smokes so well I know this is going to be a special pipe for me.
Thanks for the ooo aaa's and tslex: you should try a church, I now have 6 with 2 more coming.
It is acrylic.
Oh and, "it's s good smoker". I just had to throw that in. :wink:
