    Default Got some new wood

    Oddly, I was not looking at pipes because I really wanted one; I'd just bought myself a new old stock Stanwell Bishop with some very beautiful grain recently and a Jobey Dansk (I'm a huge Karl Erik fan, so I wanted one - it is beautiful too). But, I have been looking at pipes a lot recently. A few months back, I saw some "fan" pipes on Boswell's site and decided I had to have one. As a result, I bought this little beauty the other night.

    A Holtorp freehand. I really like Danish pipes, this one has stunning grain, and from what I can tell, it's a rather rare brand. All signs pointed towards "must have."

    STRAIGHT GRAIN! P. HOLTORP DANISH FREEHAND Estate Pipe - eBay (item 170424590063 end time Jan-02-10 17:02:32 PST)
    I'll attach a pic too.

    Prolly gonna have to sell off one or two of the ones I have... maybe only one. The tough part will be deciding which one.

    Exquisite...man. Congratulations on that...


    I wonder how my wife will take it when I inevitably take up pipe smoking again?

    Back in college we had an idea to throw a party and put viagra in all the beers just to see what people would do when everyone started getting erections. lol

    I recognize that seller's photos. I got a MdP from the same guy. He does great restores! The thing is immaculate.

    My brother dosed a buddy's car-bomb while they were on a road trip. His friend was being a right pain the whole trip and decided to get him back. My brother worked as a strip club DJ at the time and was visiting some former co-workers who teased the poor, now quite intoxicated, guy prior to my brother dragging him up on stage for karaoke in his...attentive state.

    Few years ago boys from the fire dept not far from here had a sauna and booze evening; They got a cruel idea and crushed some viagra into the glass of their chief before going to sauna.
    The poor man had hard time being there with such condition while everyone else had fun asking about his sexual tendency.
    Have to admit, it was very cruel thing to do.
