Hi Mark,

Good to see ya.

It's not a Matzhold and I bid on it accordingly but I liked the work, very meer in it's smooth lines and that's hard to do in briar.

I like to have a plan for my pipe purchases but I don't with this one. Its big and I've got some ideas but no plan.

The Tobacco Lane arrived and it's a handmade Charatan 2nd but some ninny extruded the tenon (slightly) so that it's a loose fit and I don't mess with tenons.


Bought this 100gr tin of Murrays Erinmore Mixture ($12.00 shipped). Contents are dry so it'll need a year or more in the hopper.
Made in Northern Ireland (Murrays) but 100gr (instead of 4oz) so it would appear to be a later original but I'm not sure of the year.
