Man, havent got to smoke it yet. But to answer the one question about the bowl. Every freehand i looked at had a large bowl like this. I was hoping for a tad bit smaller bowl lol. But Im glad I got it....next on the list is the Savinelli!

Thats a purty one! I am sure you will enjoy it.

Beautiful pipe....
I have several Nordings including a natural freehand. They all smoke well. One word of advice I was told about the "natural" is to break it in slower. Don't ask me why, but I think it was good advice. It seemed to take a little longer to come into it's own, but well worth the extra break-in time. Mine does burn noticeably "hotter" than my other Nordings and pipes, but nothing to be alarmed about.
As for the feel, you'll find yourself not wanting to put it down.
JMHO
