Not the common Nording pipe. (pics)

Here's what I got for fathers day. Just haven't gotten around to posting this, but I feel it's a little out of Nording's wheelhouse. Most Nording pipes I've seen and even owned a few of are freehand pipes, some fairly normal and others pretty wild and out there. This is from a series that have since been discontinued called Silver Series. Pretty much normal traditional pipe shapes with a small silver ring between the shank and the stem. Hardly seems like a Nording, but I like traditional shapes more than the usual freehand pipes. I didn't have a four square panel pipe, so when I saw this I couldn't resist. I think the square shank and stem accentuate the round sterling band a little more than a round shank. I'm not sure where these fall in quality or price in their lineup, but it smokes great. The finish is so-so and looks to be lacquered or something that makes it rather shiny, which I'm not a fan of. I have a Neerup pipe finished like that too, so I guess it's not uncommon for some of the newer Danish pipes. The stem while being comfortable is rather sloppily cut at the shoulders. The pipe was listed as used, but I could see no evidence of it being smoked. The bowl was coated, but the draft hole had no coloring at all, and there was no smell of smoke. At present it's the only Nording I own, but probably not the last.
