I love that pipe Jim, it looks like you could brain somebody with it, half pipe half shillelagh. ?

How about these two?
Maybe best described as half shillelagh, quarter walking stick, quarter pipe

Is there any reason they only carved Tanganyikan briar you’re aware of and are they still making them for anyone?

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, wild caught east coast rockfish and green beans dinner with strawberries for dessert. I'm half way through this bowl of Sept. 2015 Savinelli Doblone d’Oro in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Watching an episode of The Untouchables.

Hey, does this cob has some... issues, or it's just the photo?

It’s been smoked way to hot. It’s hanging in there Though. See how long it last.
