Not to shabby! She delivered a nice cool smoke, until the bottom 1/3rd. Then it was a little harsh, but it is a new pipe. I find all new pipes smoke that way until carbon is formed, and dread breaking in new briar. I'm sure she'll settle down after she's broken in a bit. I let she rest yesterday and today. She's back in the rotation tomorrow! Again THANK YOU very much, very kind of you!

Thanked: 609 Freehand
Well my Freehand showed up today... What a pleasure...
It's a handful, but not quite full-size length wise, but not quite a Nose Warmer...
Everything seems to be drilled straight...
The bowl coating seems different... I almost wonder is they coated it with a "tobacco" based substance... The bowl also isn't smooth, which should help build a cake...

It's about an average bowl... 1.50" deep and 3/4" +/-... But I'm sure it will last awhile Originally Posted by Nightblade

Please let me know how she smokes. I've been eyeballing those pipes, they look real nice for the $$. I noticed the use a 6mm filter. Can u smoke it w/out the filter? My only experience w/filters are the balsa ones used in my Sav's. I quickly tossed them, and smoke the pipes w/out. They tend not to dry out, even w/a weeks rest and make the pipe sour fast.

You can smoke it with a filter, it's drilled to take one, however it does not come with any... Originally Posted by RJD

I'll smoke some cobs with filters, depending on the blend... Captain Black being one of them...
I do have a few Balsa filters from my old Savinelli, I might use them with this new pipe... MIGHT...Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated...

What a week! Called in dead this morning so I started the day with a leisurely breakfast, a good pipe and a cup of coffee. The pipe in question is a Kaywoodie 7723C (pre-1936) loaded with C&D Old Joe Krantz
