Hardcastle Select 801 Large Dublin with Brass Estate Pipe

Sturdy with strong, straight lines and a thick, masculine profile, this Hardcastle Select dublin from England has a broad brass band around the end of the shank.  Tapered and straight, this classic shaped smoker is likely a touch too heavy for an all day clencher, but can still boast a comfortable bite.  The chamber is huge and the conical walls parallel the bowl's dublin shape with a well placed draft at the bottom.  There is some darkening along the back of the rim and the stem's logo is still present though some of the paint has been worn off.  There are also some fills in the finish, but this massive smoker is still in outstanding condition with an exceptional draw.
