[QUOTE="Pseudo Nim, post: 207074, member: 550"] Let's see if my keyboard will allow me to type anything. In comparing the B-Line to the Dunhill I own, there are two big difference's, the first being the diameter of the shank, the B-Line being narrower than the particular dunny I have, and the weight, again, the B-Line is much lighter, most likely due to less wood in the shank. I've been giving it a damn good workout today, at least five 1/2 bowls, and it hasn't complained. As would be expected from a quality peice of briar. So now is the dilema, Does one spend a shed load on a single new Dunhill, or walk off with a rack full and still have change ? Bit of a no brainer. Oh yes, the condition of the pipe, (it is after all a second) it's a perfect straight grain, but with two tiny pinhole fills. I can live with that, but of course, Dunhill's could not. :D [/QUOTE]
