Enjoy it, Russ! And let us know how it smokes. I'm a big fan of the Sebastien Beo line-- awesome smokers at reasonable prices.

I will be smoking it tomorrow on my 1 hour drive out to a job site. I find a nice long drive a great way to try out a new pipe.

Congrats on winning and on a beautiful pipe. I will own a Sebastien Beo by the end of the year. Love his aesthetic.

That pipe has great lines and visual balance; and who doesn't like those growth rings? :D

Enjoy it, Russ. It's a well deserved award. :clap:

Nice pipe mate, I have one similiar from France, it is an older Beldor and it smokes awsome. Congrats on your win, enjoy

Loaded it with MacB H&H HB and went out on my drive. I was a little nervous because of the smallish size of the pipe in my big meaty hands, but in all honesty, once I started smoking, it just seem to fit perfectly. Now, as far as the smoke, it was great, got a little hot, but that was user error, I was enjoying the smoke and flavor that I was puffing just a lil to much. I will be adding a few more Beo's to my collection. Its a very elegant pipe, not really for driving around in my work truck, more for after dinner sitting on the dock watching the sunset with friends with a nice tall glass of Bombay Sapphier.

Thank you again Kevin and Sykes, this is a beautiful pipe that I am very proud to call mine.

Congrats, Russ! And enjoy your new pipe!
Really funny caption. I saw that cartoon (after the contest was over) and that was a hard one. Couldn't think of one thing, but yours was funny.
Nice work.
