[QUOTE="Idlefellow, post: 464213, member: 598"] I am looking at another used example. I've only seen photos but it appears that the distinctive gap between the silver bezel and the stem is not there. Frankly I'm not familiar with how this is created; does the tenon bottom out in the hole thus creating the gap, or...? The seller claims to have no pipe knowledge and can't explain it. If I'm correct in what creates the gap then I can only think that either the mortise hole has been deepened (unlikely) or the tenon shortened, either on purpose or by breakage. If any MT owners can enlighten me, and/or give their opinion of the cause of the missing gap, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
