Re: Lord Of the Rings Pipes

I've seen a few people with the Ranger pipes. They like them. I have not tried any of them myself however.

Re: Lord Of the Rings Pipes

I used to be really interested in getting a Macqueen ranger pipe. I've been told by several people on this board that they (and all Macqeens) are junk.
Tolkeintown.com and luna pipes have some LOTR inspired pipes, but I haven't asked about them.

Re: Lord Of the Rings Pipes

Jan Zeman also offers a line of LOTR pipes called Lord of the Pipes. He actually lives in New Zealand also. He is one of the least known master pipemakers in the business today. I own one of his pipes, and consider it to be my best smoker.

It costs a bit more, but you'll never ever have a complaint about the smoking quality of his pipes. He's a true gentleman as well.

PS. MacQueen pipes are junk. The stems that are made out of wood will crack and split in no time. If you're planning on using it to smoke, don't waste the money.

Re: Lord Of the Rings Pipes

Well, I didn't get a MacQueen but I got a Brindisi Churchwarden. They are the good cool smoke I hear about Churchwardens... this is only my first one and won't be my last.
