What is in your pipe?

I'm loving that shape, grain and plateau. The pipe is nice, too.

Hope you guys are as happy with your Nordings as I am with mine. I alternated smoking my two for about a week without smoking any other pipes. They're doing very well. The fit in my hand is awesome.

I have had some difficulties getting a pipe cleaner to pass through without removing the stem, so I've been finessing the stummel with the conical end of a nut-pick, and using a wire shank brush to smooth out the transition. It's working pretty well, about 50% of the time now. If it doesn't completely eliminate the problem I guess I'll invest in a shank reamer.

Like Shawn, I've been smoking some W.O Larsen, along with some Davidoff Danish in mine.

Steve, I’m sure you are aware, but on any big bendy type pipe, I bend the pipe cleaner down as I insert every couple inches. This usually allows the cleaner to make the transition from stem to stummel. Give it a try.

Definitely. I've been eyeballing them for a while with the idea they'd be around. Now that it's not the case... 🤷‍♂️
