[QUOTE="alfredo_buscatti, post: 347869, member: 36"] I've been watching Maignurs Knets work on sp and Quality Briar, and though his pipes don't ring quite true for me, it's still breathtaking, sculptural carving. It is said that he does takes on classical designs and Art Nouveau, which for me would be his shapes which are different than anything I could imagine. I think he puts even more effort into his designs than Rolando Negoita, but in the end I would be hard-pressed to say which are "better," even to my subjective criteria. If you go to Mr. Negoita's site you can see the time he spends drawing his shapes before executing them; I wonder if Mr. Knets does the same. Surely, given his elaborate designs, you would think he does every bit of the preparatory work that Mr. Negoita does. Maignurs Knets' work is a bit fantastic but always captures my eye. [/QUOTE]
