No complaints thus far in the smoking department. I normally have a strong dislike of rusticated pipes, but this one was one of the few exceptions. I fell in love on first sight. The little bit of white acrylic or whatever it was he used takes the pipe from a good looking pipe to one of my favorites. Its funny how just the tiniest little things completely alter how we view things. Plus the bowl is nice and big which is perfect when you've got massive hands like me.

Funny how tastes are different too. I am not a big fan of accents on pipes - acrylic, bone, horn, silver, gold, anything. And while I like smooth pipes, I like rusticated better, and a crisp blast is my favorite.

The only one who needs to like your pipe, is you.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
