BEAUTIFUL PIPE AND GRAIN!!! I love the light finish, too. I think it will smoke fine with a little carbon or honey on the walls of the bowl.
I have never been convinced that an off-center hole meant a bad smoke. I have a few and they smoke fine. I am inlcined to believe, that if anything, it could impart a swirling action of the draft, thereby aiding in complete combustion. I've never checked, but someone is bound to have patented an idea like that. If not, well there you go, Ed!
I'll trade you a bunch of orphan pipes and some Mixture #79 for it! --RJ-- |
Hadn't thought about smearing a little honey in the bowl. Have smoked a second half bowl,seems some better.
The finish is the natural color-no stain. It darkened just a shade when I waxed it.

OS, I have an Applewood pipe from Mr. Ralph Gosse. I've smeared a bit of honey in it every time I've smoked it. It really works.
Perhaps you could send it to RJ or me to Pre-Smoke. Promise we'll send it back.......not.....ted |

Believe everybody is afraid to try it. Reminds me of this....There was a little girl, who had a little curl. When she was good, she was very very good, and when she was bad she was awful.
This tobacco could be the same way.....ted |

I have smoked three 1/2 bowls in this pipe. Seems to be getting better. Was gonna smear some honey in it but the little bear was empty!! Wonder how molasses would work?
