Here's another new pipe. This is a Thompson Rusticated bent. Likely made by Savinelli as it has their Punto Oro Corallo di Mare finish, which is a naked unwaxed rustication.

Another recent acquisition. I bought a pipe rack I was interested in that came with a few pipes. One was this Grabow Viking. My first metal pipe. Cleaned up nicely and a smokes great!
I also got this Venturi as part of the deal. Wasn't too sure about this one. It's made of pyrolitic graphite. It's a bit heavy but smokes well. Apparently these pipes have a bit if a following. It cleaned up nicely and is pretty much indestructible.
I'll post the other pipes from this deal when I get around to cleaning them up later, including a great GBD Super Q spigot pot, and a bent italian billiard with a mottled cumberland stem.

Very nice! I know pyrolitic carbon is one of the best thermal conductors around. You are basically smoking in a heat sink, must be a cool smoke!

Glad it got there.
Finally got some on the way...
4noggins has gained a new customer. Not only did it arrive in a week (typically I have to wait three) he wrote fly fishing supplies on the box and didn't have to pay a dime for importation taxes!
I blame Robster and Derrick for 3OS and 1792 enabling, respectively.
Awesome, but scary...if they catch that, what happens?
This stuff is meant to be secret squirrel. True.
Well, I assume he would get in more trouble than I. Would most likely have to pay the applicable import taxes on the baccy.
What Japanese momma don't know, don't hurt her
He could be fined up to $10,000 and put in jail for up to five years. Or at least that's what smokingpipes claims is the penalty.
He Senshi or he the guy at 4noggins?
4noggins. I'm not sure if if it would be the Japanesse government or the US that would pursue it though. It would like be a charge along the lines of customs declaration fraud which I think would be a federal charge. I'm Canadian so I'm not certain of the ins and outs of it. I just recall reading something about the fine/charges on smokingpipes FAQ section and assume the same would apply for any one shipping tobacco.
It wasn't me, it was the one armed man!!
That guy again!!!! I work for the Canadian Post Office so I know of that one armed man.
