Indeed- It gives a wonderful change of pace from your crappy partially sandblasted calabash! :twisted:

I'm not mean. I facilitate skillset development through targeted dispositional analysis.

I was thinking the same thing.

P.S. I'd be happy to buy a block of strawberry wood off of someone if they have extra.

The ring had a small void, so Premal filled it with ebony.

I've always heard [uncoated] strawberry wood pipes have a sweetness during the first few bowls. I have never smoked one, so I cannot say for certain.

And this one, being made by Premal and me will, of course, be one of the best smoking pipes ever made.

Fantastic looking pipe!

I have two strawberry wood pipes and they smoke fantastic. Yes, there is a little sweetness for the first several bowls. The wood seems a little lighter than briar.

Thanks for the insight! Good to know. Yeah, it is slightly less dense than briar.
