I thought I'd put in my 2 cents worth on this whole "freehand" discussion. Did not the Danes invent freehand pipes? Why is it that when we see pictures of the legendary freehand pipemakers working...they are most often smoking traditional shape pipes?
I got this much beloved Preben Holm for my Dad at the BX at Rhine Main AFB when I was stationed in Germany. He appreciated it but, seldom smoked it. When I asked why, he said "because it's too heavy to hold it in my teeth". While working at tasks that require both hands (honing, cleaning weapons, yard work, etc.) I will often smoke my Missouri Meerschaum or full bent Comoys for just that reason....I can comfortably hold it in my teeth. Opinions?

BTW Phill,
Your Nordings are beautiful!! I am especially envious of the dark, wax drip one in the middle. I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I had the funds.

Those are really beautiful freehands, gents. While reading this thread i can't help but admire the beauty and specially uniqueness of the design of those pipes. I think there are times for corn cobs and times for freehands and times for anything between.
Heavy pipes like my Lorenzo or churchwarden aren't good when doing something with my hands but they are excellent when taking things easy and just enjoying good smoke.
Besides that is real cool old lighter you have Jimbo (#1565)'That is what i do. I drink and i know things'

Tomi,
You are right about different pipes for different occaisions.
The lighter in my post #1565 is an old Nimrod made in Cincinnati, Ohio (Buckeye's home town) in the 1950's. It is aluminum...functional and very common here in the States. They do not hold fuel very well, though. Glad you like it.
Please tell us about the VERY cool old brass lighter in your post #1550.
