Match Holiday Mix in an estate Grabow Grand Duke straight carved rusticated Rhodesian that I got along with a pipe rack more as a display item than as a viable pipe. It had a chunk broken off its rim and was caked up.
I hack sawed about 3/16" off the top then rounded the edges with a rasp. Now it looks like a strawberry.
I like the stems on Grabow pipes. The older Grabows made by Linkman's in Chicago are superb but even the Sparta pipes are durable and delightful.
