Is this the pipe where some don't like the ferrule? This is the same pipe! Sometimes photos, due to shadows or highlights, will show gaps or bumps that aren't there. Can't tell for sure, but there's quite a difference in the two photos. So the ferrule might be flush, and it might not.

I have a Basil Meadows Bing, and am happy with it.
I have no interest here other than share some experience that I've gained from photography and examining pipes over the years.
Not sure what you refer to when you say, "NO difference either way brother."

Bruno definitely does some nice work....and if you buy from him, when it comes in the mail, the wife can say "what is it?"
...."Nutten Honey", and you aren't lying.

Those are really nice, ESPECIALLY for the price. They're a steal.

Very nice and reasonably priced too. I have a bunch of good pipes from St. Claude.

Thanks for sharing. It's good to hear about new pipe opportunities we might not otherwise know about.
