| Everyday I went on Smokingpipes.com's website and looked at this pipe.I knew that eventually I'd look for it and it would be long gone.Yesterday was the day I pulled the trigger...

| Nice! I've seen several of Wills pipes, he's one of the few carvers who can do odd shapes and pull it off well. Fluid lines, good balance, great interpretation and very nice craftsmanship. That one's a sweetheart! One of these days I'd like to get one of wills pipes and one of Rolando Negoita's, they pull off the unordinary so well  _________________ These are horrible times and all sorts of horrible people are prospering, but we must never let this disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to annoy and hinder them at every turn.

Thanks Jim. I agree. I recently found out that Will's inspiration is Kurt Balleby,who's perosnally my absolute favorite pipe carver. You can see quite a bit of Kurt in Will's pipes....
