[QUOTE="LL, post: 140157, member: 95"] I remember hearing a couple years ago that Les planned to retire the following year. Not sure if he's still carving or not. He tended to rush some of his work and often had "exterior alignment issues", but the good specimens were very good. The silver work was always first rate, too. I bought one of his "Giant P" bulldogs (P being a well-known Dunhill shape) about five years ago, and never found fault with it of any kind. Super comfortable and tastes great. Being both small-chambered and dedicated to stoved VA's I rarely smoke it anymore, but it's nice enough that I've kept it for its own sake. It's scary to think how many English brands there used to be, and now there are almost none. :( [/QUOTE]
