[QUOTE="Frost, post: 175061, member: 974"] Overall I guess I dig long shanked stuff (lovat/canadian/lumberman etc.) for striaghts, bent Danish egg-type shapes and both straight & bent bulldog/rhodesians. I really want a blasted, slightly canted long shanked dublin w/ a plateau rim. Just haven't found the right one yet or decided who I want to carve it for me. Really almost any shape if done well can strike my fancy though, even the crazy ones. It's usually the proportions, lines, balance, and a gracefullness of form that make me want a particular pipe. I also have been paying alot more attention to size & weight recently, preferring smaller and light weight pipes which can often be at odds with the long-shanked idea, but not always. [/QUOTE]
