Ginger Baker is a pipe smoker.



I want to make a custom bowl for his Falcon.

Cream is one of my favorite bands.

From the Box: Nording straight grain 'B'

Unrestored, as it is from the box of 'one day' pipes. May actually get time to clean and polish it this weekend...maybe...

Early Nording, classic Danish pipe for the time - back when they were all establishing the 'freehand' style. For a while the stem shape seen on this pipe was Nording's 'signature'.

With a tobacco chamber that is 25mm wide at the top (sharp v-shaped chamber, about 3mm across at the bottom PERFECT drilling), 40mm deep at it's shortest point and with walls of up to 18mm - well...it's a man's pipe. And, it's incredibly light.
