Product: Gifts Plateau Briar Pipe Kit Amber Acrylic Stem-Straight
The drilling is nice and well marked. The block I ordered does look similar to the one in the sales pic. Under closer inspection the block is not as high grade plateau as one would expect for the price and from the gift section of the store but a good pipe can be made. I was hoping for a humpy hedgehog back front to rear but a sunken section is in the way. The best choice would be a plain block as something as subjective as a plateux straight grain block should be chosen with care and not pulled from a shelf by a busy shipping employee. Over all, the block is well drilled and of dense briar so I would highly recommend a plain block. I have actually smoked a bowl in the block after some light adjustment and clean up and can say it smoked great. I am leaving it "as is" so the quality of the plateux is not a deal breaker but I did find a lot less to work with than hoped for. Still a fun impulse buy for the money....Read More

Not sure if mine resembles the average block quality, but the grain in it was absolutely outstanding! Stem fitment could be a touch better, but I’d give it 6 starts if I could. Best predrilled block I’ve ever ordered.
