Tonic - Real Briar Estate Pipe

Brand: Tonic - Real Briar

 

Shank: Light in color and in good condition.

 

Draft Hole (Air Hole: Dead center of the chamber but not entirely flush with the chamber bottom. There is a gap that won't affect the smoke.

 

Chamber Reaming: Very well reamed and quite symmetrical.

 

Condition: 7/10

 

Flaws: There is the millimeter gap at the air hole. The mouthpiece is a touch loose, though not in a way that causes any trouble while smoking.

 

Score: 6/10

 

Comment: A real briar estate pipe that I think will smoke very well. I looked specifically for pits but couldn't find any. It's also a sitter; that is, like a poker, designed to stand upright when you set it on the table.
