[QUOTE="Doc Manhattan, post: 33405, member: 341"] I like partial-rustication when the rustication is given some meaningful real estate on the pipe, especially when it's functional. I have a Danbark poker where the bottom 25% of the bowl is rusticated, which makes good sense: I can sit it down anywhere without worrying about marring the briar. Not a fan of the artistic cover-up of blemishes and defects; reminds me of getting a tattoo to cover up your ex-girlfriend's name. Once the perfection of the smooth finish is compromised, I would rather just see a little pit or a full blast. [/QUOTE]
