Thanks everyone. Bruce is a really great guy to work with, and his pipes are top notch. Would suggest his work to anyone without a second thought. This is my fourth commission from him, and I'm sure it will be an amazing smoker. His work never ceases to astound me!

Beautiful pipe. I expected no less from Bruce. Really glad to see he is back in the saddle making pipes.

Spent some time on his site. Can see why you choose him and your pipe is outstanding.

I'm not a huge fan of sandblasting/rustication of pipes. I prefer a smooth finish where I can see the grain and birdseye very clearly.
That being said I'm amazed at Bruce's work...this is a beautiful pipe! If I were ever to own a sandblasted pipe it would be one of his!
@Chasingmembers - you'll have to put up some pics tonight of your first smoke with it! I hope it arrived safe and sound.
