About This Pipe

There's nothing quite as appropriately classical as an army mounted bent Billiard. Army mounts were first 'designed' during WWI when (likely dug-out in a muddy trench) the shank of a soldiers' pipe snapped and was jimmy rigged with a spent shell case. Actually, this reinforces the strength of the shank and mortise which in turn means that the pipe can now be broken down while still hot without fear of it warping. This is what's referred to as a 'win-win' situation.
