gwtwdbss, I traded this since I could not bring myself to smoke it. It's a thing of beauty but the capacity is overwhelming for me and would never be able to sit long enough to enjoy what it is capable of doing and it needs someone who can.
Fish, Both pipes are gorgeous. Cutty's are one of my favorite shapes so IMO I think it was a very great trade. I'm sure the person you traded with agrees that it is a great trade for them as well.

Chris Askwith posted on another forum we're on the pipe was made from a piece of Morta that had 100 years of growth rings on the pipe if I were to count them, I think I will once in hand. :)

Humidity be damned! The suspense was killing me so I wanted a smoke of Wessex Brown Virginia Flake anyway and that is what I stuffed into the Askwith Morta Cutty for its maiden voyage. There aren't enough words to state how much I enjoyed that smoke, it was near magical and nothing but ash was left, it would take a 90 degree grinder with a serious abrasive wheel to wipe the smile off my face. I thank Chris Askwith very much for this superb pipe.

What a beautiful pipe! ....I'm wondering how many shanks I would destroy trying to turn that on the lathe....

Glad to hear you enjoy the pipe! People really marveled at it when they saw it in the shop. It is so incredibly long and elegant!

Amazing pipe. Congrats! If you smoke her while driving you may need to hang a red flag off her to signal long load :rofl:
