Is that a second-chamber type, Nate, or is it gonna have babies soon? What's the gestation for blasted rhodesions? Will there be a litter, or just one pup?

If it weren't so late, I would have LOL'd, but I had to keep it in.

Cool pipe though Nate. With a name like "Zastruga" I knew it was yours even before seeing who posted it. I really like this pipe....and am also curious about the reverse calabash answer.

No, not a reverse calabash. Just a chubby shank. I think this particular rhodesian species has only one offspring at a time ;)

I think it is the ugliest pipe you've made to date.. I know you don't want to put it up on your website due to the shame it will bring your babies once the Gestation period Sas mentioned is over.. so I'll spare you long explinations.. you can go ahead and send it to me. since I live in another country nobody in the US will ever see it and you won't have to explain the 'What were you thinking' question that will be burning on everybodies mind.

Great blast Nate

Cool one, Nate! Glad to see that somebody went the normal route with a pipe that looks to be the 'reverse calabash' type. I for one is tired of all the hype around it.

Suhweet Jaysus, man! That pipe is awful! I know James offered to save you public embarrassment first, but I am in the states and shipping would be cheaper if you just sent it to me. I promise it will never see the light of day. Just the light of a good flame on good tobacco.

Seriously though: great pipe, Nate!

Thanks Charl! I would do this one as a RC if it was requested. I haven't had any requests for any yet :D

I'm a fan of proportionately large shanks, when done well. I think this one was done well. I dig it, Nate!

Beautiful blast! The shape is great but what really sets the whole thing off is the stem. Amazing!

I love the pipe but would have a hard time figuring out what to wear with it. Do they make leather ascots?

Thanks Hudson, not certain about the ascots though. My apologies. :)
