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.

That’s why they’ve all been buying Nordings
If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

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.

Appreciate it, thanks. No sir, it was already calcified this color.

I wonder if that was the result of the oxblood soak that Yak mentioned in the other thread? Looks awesome.

Jeff, if you ever quit pipes or just get tired of this pipe, I'd like the opportunity to buy it from you. Keep me in mind.

Here's my meer from Africa where the top of the bowl has been calcinated.
Here's a short video of a bowl being calcinated followed by a PSD thread on the process.

Couple of bowls of Dark burley/buttered rum and now a bowl of rustica and ps41, layered like a parfait. Not very good. Up until now the rustica I've been smoking has been dry as straw and mostly flavorless. I refilled my pocketjar max with more rustica from the mason jar I've been keeping it in with a couple boveda. It has rehydrated a bit and tastes a little sour. My pipe keeps going from sour to sweet and nutty and back to sour. I think ill pull the bovedas and let it dry out again. Live and learn.
