[QUOTE="SpeedyPete, post: 392086, member: 1538"] I can't speak for Jean du Toit but Charl Goussard is a friend of mine and I see him regularly. We talk pipes all the time! He's got no problem to get hold of super fine briar. He orders his stuff from an Italian supplier, same as a lot of other carvers all over the world. Both Jean and Charl turn out some sandblasted and rusticated pipes, same as other carvers. The bulldog Charl made me for my 70th birthday had some small pits in the briar. We decided together that he will blast it and then leave it "naked". Wish you can see this pipe, hold it in your hand and appreciate what he's done. So both Jean and Charl must sandblast and/or rusticate some of their makings, same as all the other carvers form all over the world. But they do not have a shortage of briar at all. [/QUOTE]
