How are you guys liking those Stanwell HCAs?
claypipesarchae,
I like both of mine very much. I think they have the perfect size and shaped bowls to handle flake tobacco blends just perfectly. They provide a good hour or longer smoke. I cannot say the Churchwarden provides a cooler smoke as some articles I have read suggest they can. My Churchwarden is used during the evening hours for English/Balkan blends and the short HCA provides me with an excellent smoke of Vapers.
ALL you guys have some very nice looking pipes and it's been fun viewing them all.
fishnbanjo, your Charatan Deluxe looks AMAZING! Very handsome pipe and I know it has to be an excellent smoker.

@Organized - apparently the tip was glazed to stop the porious stem of the clay from sticking to the lip. I am informed that this form of continued irritation normally in conjunction with drinking led to cancer of the lip and was common during Victorian times.
