[QUOTE="RAlden, post: 423154, member: 2504"] Novak is a great guy, I look forward to seeing him in Chicago each year. He told me that he used to make plain classic shaped pipes, but one day realized his work looked like a million other pipes, and decided to do something uniquely his own. His driving force for shaping is based on how a pipe feels in the hand. I have to agree that his aesthetic doesn't suit me, and this line of pipe particularly so, but in person his work is more appealing than just in pictures. Every one of his pipes I've held does fit in the hand like some sort of organic extension, so I think there is a lot to say for his thinking on the subject. All those weird ridges and lumps sit right in your hand beautifully. [/QUOTE]
