Nice choice. I'm more inclined to get a nice clawed meerschaum after the discussion as well.After the discussion on clawed pipes last week, I decided it was high time to trigger some people with this one. 1970s vintage Bacchus Eagle claw pipe.

I stumbled upon this one, very lightly used in an antique mall a few years ago. If memory serves me correctly, I paid $40 for it. Has the original case and box as well.Nice choice. I'm more inclined to get a nice clawed meerschaum after the discussion as well.
The history behind the claw/talons was fascinating.
