Show Us Your Pipe Dan Shaped Reformed Pipes

[anotherbob]

About the same as my half-bents. So, like a bent with a straight stem.

I bought for the chimney bowl, not the reformed shape.

not sure why the bowl standing straight up matters. Except for visual reasons. But that's an interesting pipe. Thanks much

I've owned a couple Pipe Dans over the years, though they came and went.
I've had a couple more pipes made in the style of the early 60s catalog-

The full bent chimney by Todd Bannard:



And this Dan-inspired ditty by Yorgos Mitakidis:




I am gleeful to have won an auction yesterday for a Dan era "Spike" by Sven Knudsen. I will be patiently waiting by the mailbox this week.

Mitakidis does some great blast work and this is a good example.
BTW: Nice "Spike," too!

There is another thread currently going about Chimney pipes, and the best known of the genre are those made by Pipe Dan.

Do you have any Pipe Dan pipes?

I do not have a Pipe Dan pipe but believe I have something of a remake replica inspired by that shape. The Danish Pipe Shop introduced a line of Reborn Classic pipes several years ago. Mine was a gift selected by my wife and daughter. Here are links to the Reborn Classic which mentions Pipe Dan, and the Dan shape. I hope this is okay to post here instead of the Chimney pipe thread.

I own one that is in very good condition for its age. It has never been topped (as most have) and even has the stamp “Pibe Dan” on the stem (which I cannot photograph well). I agree that the shape does bring out a certain nuance in the tobacco and it does get fussy to smoke midway through the bowl. I smoke it very sparingly because of the excellent condition the pipe is in, but I enjoy every smoke.

I have @alaskanpiper to thank for inspiring me to purchase a Pipe Dan.

Glad I could help! Pipe Dan’s are rad. Especially that mid-sixties era. Absolutely a revolution in shaping. Just scooped up a wild “spike” made by Sven Knudsen for pipe-dan in 1965 the other day:

I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what shape the below 1959 is, anyone know?



Thank you!

My catalogue is from 1969, but it looks like the top pipe inder lightweights.

It does look close.

It also kinda "looks close" like an Ambassador in my 1959-60 catalogue:

Several years ago, @alaskanpiper was taking a photo of the Northern Lights while smoking a Pipe Dan Shaped Reform pipe. Maybe it is the unusual glow of the Northern Lights, or maybe it was just the choice of such a magical looking pipe to be smoking during the Northern Lights, but I felt like I just had to have one.

Here is mine:View attachment 279590
I purchased this one from Reborn Pipes - always a great place to get an older pipe that has been loving restored. This particular pipe had many patches made to its stem. Unfortunately, the patches are not holding up so well and I'll most likely have a new vulcanite stem made for it. One this is for sure, the pipe is not for sale.

There is another thread currently going about Chimney pipes, and the best known of the genre are those made by Pipe Dan.

Why a chimney? I have found them to be a bit temperamental and I believe the shape impacts the perceived taste of the tobacco due to how the tobacco is forced to burn in such a narrow bowl. But again, that might just be me. Regardless, it is an interesting shape and I pull the pipe out from time to time.

Do you have any Pipe Dan pipes?

I don't own any Pibe Dan pipes, although I'd love to get one of his 60s pipes. I do have a few chimneys, for example a rare Camoys shape, but unfortunately none by Pibe Dan.

I'm stupid. I just saw the pipe and it reminded me of your BST.
