Fabricating the wood into a pipe so that all of the flame points exactly to the heel must have been a tricky business, but it really paid off.

Now THAT'S what I call a nice pipe. Perfection.

Rhinoceros and elephants have been pushed to the verge of extinction by Man's greed for their ivory. In my opinion, use of such material is completely unacceptable :x
