WCC Simply Orange in a Radice Clear Bent Dublin Faux Bamboo with Baldo Baldi briar aged over 20 years.

I think this bowl #5 since I bought it last month. Still a long way to go for break in, sipping it like slowly and carefully like an ole granny! 👵 LOL 😝

Be well everyone! ❤️

Passing the half way mark on this bowl of New Watch City Beta Test #2 in a 1982 smooth slight bend straight grain Ben Wade Martinique freehand sitter with a wide top and a black vulcanite stem. This will get me to dinner time. Watching the Braves-Angels game.

Smoking a Charter Oak cigar for lunch, just secured an estate trade for a Jody Davis I’ve been drooling over. It’s been marked as sold for months and then showed up available today, I assume someone just didn’t pay. I think the stem color and mammoth work perfectly with the natural blast. Very pleased!

Beautiful pipe. Jody really knows how to blast a pipe. I'm curious what year was this Friar carved?

Very nice - looking at it I wouldn't necessarily guess Jody Davis as the maker.
Love when that happens too - happened for me years ago on a Parker estate.
I've still got a Suhr pipe in my wishlist from like 3 years ago. The day I went to buy it, it had sold. I still scour the internet for it. One day..

Jody Davis is definitely one of the top five American carvers today--the others being Jeff Gracik (J.Alan), J.T. Cooke, Larry Roush, and Todd Johnson, IMHO.
