Having @Humblepipe ’s 8 Days in a Kaufmann Bros. & Bondy (KB&B, a precursor to Kaywoodie) Gutta-percha Eagle Claw with Briar screw-in bowl, and orific bit, circa 1930s or earlier. This pipe is relatively large, measuring 10.5" diagonally from the stem tip to front claw.

For scale, here it is next to a Savinelli Series III 320 KS Author, and my smallest Gutta-percha KB&B Eagle Claw pipe (2.5"):

Coniston Cut Plug in an Ozark Mountain Briars cutty. This is one of the best-smoking pipes that I own.

@BorealPiper Just finished the Coniston Cut Plug I brought home from Buxton. Good tobacco choice for the King's Clay as it's like the old Condor Long Cut. I think Gawith tobacco is very well suited to clays!

Well, it is now 3:24 pm. I am pleased to report that the day’s meetings are all nicely completed. Seeing that I am on PTO starting tomorrow, why not get ahead of the game I’m thinking. Makes absolutely perfect sense, right? A little straight-up Virginian sweetness to enliven this fine November afternoon.
