Name: The Author
Notes:
Yes, I know this isn't a proper author shape as defined by the Great
Beards of the hobby. But, I can't think of it as anything else -
It just looks like something that a noted novelist would puff
contentedly while thinking over his next few pages.
Positives:
BIG pipe (This could be good or bad). A big pipe for a big
smoker. I was very torn about what to grade this pipe - between
being flawless enough to leave unstained and having a really nice grain
pattern, it probably could have been a grade 4. But, it was hard
as a rock and I wasn't able to get the sort of blast depth that I had
hoped for, and it has one small sandpit still visible on the shank.
I dunno. Someone will be getting a very nice example of a
grade 3, I think. The ring pattern is beautiful and the pale
color should darken wonderfully through the years as it is smoked.
Open draw, passes a cleaner easily, yadda yadda..
Negatives: One shank sandspot that should vanish after a couple smokes' worth of darkening.
