Pipe bag and a new pipe

Cool! Thanks for the pics and info.
Nice pipe, too.

Is that pipe the Stanwell #95 shape?

wow- nice birds eye grain on that briar! love the chunky, solid shape too. i have always been a bit scared of thick-walled pipes, believing (perhaps incorrectly) that thick walls crack more easily due to uneven expansion as they heat and cool...perhaps someone will correct me on this if they know?

Scotrob, I've been smoking pipes since 1988 and I've never had a bowl, thick or thin, crack on me. My personal preference is for thicker bowls, but that's mostly an aesthetic choice.

It is indeed a shape 95. It is becoming my favorite pipe. I really like the thick walls and it always feels cool to the touch.

That really is a nice looking pipe.

I like that bag. Looks like something from the Western Past.......
