In my continuous travels across the interwebs, I stumbled across this pipe. Not only is the pipe brand "Corleone", but they are also calling the pipe line "The Musician". Now if that alone isn't enough to pique your interest, it is a dual finish(business on the top, party on the bottom), has what looks like a gold sandwich band, wood shank extension.. and a perspex style stem. That my friends is how you make a basket pipe..

I already wanted it after I saw it.. but then I read the description and the pipe was lifted to another level. I didn't realize there were "swift" pipes. Have I just been smoking at normal transport speeds? I have clearly been missing out on something.

A brand called "Corleone" should come with a carnation for your lapel buttonhole.

Or, should be hand delivered by a big guy with dark, slicked back hair named "AN-tony".

The price just about fits my wallet and should keep the missus happy.

Hey, it "swiftly carry luxurious pipe tobacco smoke from the bowl to the palate, making the experience worth while" and it's "prestige and authentic." What more can be said?

Lol. Made from rosewood. $21.99 (atm on sale). Description uses mangled English.
Let me guess ........ Made in China?

I've got one rosewood pipe, one of those ShirePipes brand, it was super cheap and it smokes great! The only downfall is how heavy it is; but meh, that's not so bad when your sitting around at home. I actually really like a couple of these Corleone's so I might spring for one...

If I wrote that description I would have replaced "swiftly" with "cordially". That's all I got.
