Sven Knudsen Duck

[dmcmtk]

Dave, the wording reads:

Handicraft of

Copenhagen

Genuine Bruyere

Well, that solves that mystery.

Some more Sven Knudsen shapes, all for Larsen.
Shape 70 in the foreground, and a smaller version of the shape (no shape number) marked Flame Grain, which dates it to the very early 1960's in the background,

Shape 41 smooth and blast both Super,

Shape 79,

Shape 86,

Shape 18,

Shape 107,

And the latest one I found, only marked SPECIAL,

:D

Beautiful shape!

I love the last one, Dave -- the one marked 'special.' Such unbelievably clean lines.

I've said it before, the three most important, most influential, Danish pipe makers work from the period, Sixten Ivarsson for Stanwell, Sven Knudsen for W.O. Larsen, and Gert Holbek for PipeDan.

Who is Mr. Cook? It's a new one on me. Exceptional work (and a very nice website).
