The olive is from an ancient grove in Bethlehem. Wish I could get bigger pieces of it

She's purdy, Ryan. That's a particularly beautiful piece of olivewood too.

Ryan, because I liked it so much, I decided to show your pipe to my fellow pipesmokers on the Belgian/Dutch pipesmokersforums.

Like I expected, they're likewise impressed with this gorgious pipe!

Massis, sent you a PM.
Thanks everyone for the comments. This pipe has gotten a lot of attention, I guess that means make more of them :D

Just plain sexy! Like every thing about it. Personal taste; I would have added a white accent to the shank - sort of a tuxedo look.
