Geeze, what can I say. I have heard the term “Pocket Magnum” and I would think it would apply here. I could have made this piece with a tapered mouthpiece and it would have probably been over 8 inches in length but I wanted to do something different. It is almost a Magnum nose warmer but at over 6 inches it is surely not a nose warmer. This is a pretty awesome pipe and I am very pleased with the piece. The blast is incredible and with the smooth top and the sheer size it turned out to be a pretty cool pipe. I have pictured with this pipe a Dunhill Gp. 4, just to give an idea if the size. Please check out the dimensions. This is a wax only finish. I discovered a superior technique than I have been recently doing for thinning my mouthpieces and I am very happy with the thinness and comfort. I will continue to do this to my mouthpieces. Hand cut Ebonite mouthpiece, Delrin tennon, hand made Solid Sterling fitment.
