This has turned out to be a pretty good thread. I stopped smoking years ago and have a couple/three pipes stashed somewhere in our storage shed. Maybe I'll have to dig em out for a pic later.

That's a beautiful freehand, Ed! :thumbup:
Great job I love both!Here's my trusty 108OT helping mod my Missouri Meerschaum. Took off the orange stain and clearcoat.

and heres the finished Meerschaum ready for smoking next to a similarly modded carbon opinel 6. The bolster end on the Opi works perfectly as a tamper. Both knife and pipe are finished by charring the wood and sanding down to 1500 with mineral oil (BLO on the knife).
