Black Bent Pocket Tadpole nose warmer Tobacco Pipe by Rex Walden

After making my first small "fish-shaped" (looks a bit like a pollywog or tadpole) pipe, modeled originally after a "blockhead" nosewarmer (it does have somewhat flat or paneled sides, I had a lot of interest from the pipe smoking community online.

The shape has a defined but short tail and rounded bowl with smooth rim matched with a snub ebonite bit complete with a big white dot.  I decided to make this one smaller than usual and planned on keeping it for myself :-).  The pipe has a less aggressive rustication with a light blast, finished with a double black finish.

I gave it a whirl last night, and boy what a nice pipe it is to hold in the teeth while pipe making.   I have had a few more requests for this pipe and will complete some orders for customers in Scandinavia in the coming summer months.  Kept by me and added to my collection of shop and travel pieces.  Made in May 2014.

Straight Grain Bent Prince Tobacco Pipe by Rex Walden

This was a beautiful piece a briar that I left natural for the finish.  The pipe is a thin walled feather-light prince shaped pipe with a gradual bend to the stem.  This pipe would be an ideal pipe for Virginia blends and has a large bowl at 7/8" width.  Stamped on bottom "Rex Walden" "Texas", made in 2013.  SOLD and shipped to Istanbul, Turkey.

Custom Briar Poker Tobacco Pipe by Rex Walden "Thor's Hammer" USA

This was a recent commissioned pipe from a customer in Canada.  The briar block had a nice plateaux feature on top of it, so I tried my best to keep it by making the rim of the pipe smooth and using rustication with a light blast to give the pipe some contrast.  I had castle or fortress in my mind while shaping the pipe (hence the squarish shape), but after I posted some photos of it on Instagram one of my followers called it "Thor's Hammer", which I thought was a great name for the pipe.  The poker features a hand cut ebonite stem with a big round white dot inlay.  The bottom of the pipe was stained brown and shows off some nice grain.  This pipe has been sold and shipped to Alberta, Canada.

Thanks for looking,
Rex
