[QUOTE="Bub, post: 40865, member: 31"] This isn't a straight grain question, but rather a cross grain question. I found the following information on the Castello web site: [url=http://www.castello.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=30]http://www.castello.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=30[/url] "Castello Collection Occhio di Pernice The mark "Occhio di Pernice" was born in the beginning of ‘ 80. Before, pipes featured by this particular cut were catalogued as "Collection". Since January 2003 "Occhio di Pernice" has been graded using the classical "K" system." Now for my question: I have 2 Castello pipes that are cut cross grain. They are labeled "Castello Collection" One is 2k and the other is 3k. What does this mean: (1) Are they Occhio di Pernice? (2) Are they Collection grade pipes that were made before the 80s? (3) Do they have the value of Occhio di Pernice grade pipes? Thanks, Bub [/QUOTE]
