Couple of pipes for sale...Nice ones

**cigarsarge** · 10-17-2011, 07:19 PM

First up is a Mastro de Paja Oom Paul. It is handmade. It is a large pipe suitable for a 2 hour smoke. The bowl swallows my little finger. I've smoked it about a dozen times. I simply don't have time to smoke it. I have only smoked straight Burley and Straight Virginia through it...No aro or lat stuff. It is a good smoker. I have $130 in it...I will take $100 plus shipping. I am wanting a nice meerschaum...Maybe an acquire me this can be worked out.

Next up is a gourd calabash. It is made of African Blackwood with a ceramic bowl. The bowl is just starting to color around the rim. The bowl has a couple minor dings and there is a bit of tooth chatter on the stem. A bit of work will fix the tooth chatter. Walker Briar Works has done a bit of work on it to improve the draw. It is really open now. $85 plus shipping...Maybe an acquire me this can be worked out for this one too.

I will clean the pipes and sanitize the stem before shipping both pipes so they will be ready to smoke when you get them. If you want them both we can talk about the price.

You know you want one of these....Gonna give you guys first shot before I post em on some pipe forums. Make me an offer on one or both...You never know.

Tell you what...I found a meer for less than I want for the Mastro de Paja. It is the SMS Meerschaum Tiger Pipe 224-TIG. It includes free shipping. Pretty good deal IMHO. http://www.milantobacco.com/meerschaum_pipes.htm

Calabash reduced to $75...Taking a beating at that price. Cash or tobacco from the tobacco shop in the Mastro de Paja offer. This is a good cool smoking pipe.

One last try on the Calabash..$65 shipped or the tobacco deal. Taking a bath on this one. It smokes real well...It just don't suit my personality

Guarentee this one would get your intetest back...Might work with you a small bit more.

That was one hell of a scene when he smoked the fancy pipe and the poor farmer smoked a homemade cob. Talk about tension.

Evil tempter.... I'm going to wait and let fate decide.

Yep. That was an awesome scene.

**cigarsarge** · 10-21-2011, 08:05 AM

One last bump...You pipers know you want this.

**Tdre977** · 10-21-2011, 08:55 AM

Shit, that calabash is awesome. Really thinking about it.

I probably won't take it out with me, the risk of me getting all liquored up and breaking it is far too high. But thanks for the sick looking pipe. Maybe next year for halloween I'll use the pipe and go as Col. Hans Landa from Inglorious Basterds, that's a costume that's sure to get me punched in the face!
