Kaywoodie

Kaywoodie began as a line of pipes offered by KB&B (Kaufman Brothers & Bondy)

in 1919 (see also Dinwoodie). Ultimately, KB&B changed its corporate name to "Kaywoodie".

It became a brand of S. M. Frank & Co from March 1955.

Kaywoodie seconds: Bentley US, Devonshire

USA

Brands with clover, spade, heart logo

The cloverleaf logo: the round logo (black cloverleaf in white circle

or white cloverleaf in black circle ) was first used in 1937.

Up until the late 40's this logo was used on all of the upper grades pipes.

The concomitant use of the plain white cloverleaf and the disk inlaid

logo continued untill the early 80's.

Up until the late 1940's/early 50's, the logo was on top of the stem.

After that the logo was moved to the side of the stem (exceptions exist).

The code: see comments about "President" pipe

The Drinkless Shellcraft

(Underside) 07 The Drinkless Shellcraft

The white logo has the shape of the Drinkless systeme (see dok)

which equipped these pipes from 1924.

This Shellcraft has a push tenon and was thus crafted prior to 1930.

No KB&B clover stamped on the shank.

Push tenon and Drinkless stinger

This pipe is marked with "Drinkless" on the shank, on the stem and on the stinger.

It doesn't have the KB&B shamrock logo nor any "Kaywoodie" stamping.

Nevertheless its caracteristics allow to identify it as an early Kaywoodie:

  • A 2 digits shape number (17 = Dublin): period 1924-1929)
  • A push tenon: pipe manufactured prior to 1929
 
 

Premier

Enlarge

 

(Left side) KBB (In clover) Drinkless, Premier
(Right side) Aged Bruyere, 29

The "Premier" line was produced only during a year: 1928

From 1924 to 1929 (about) Kaufmann Brothers & Bondy (KB&B) stamped a

2 digit code on the pipes (29 in this case) to indicate their shape.

The fact this pipe dates from this period is also confirmed by a push stem.

It illustrates a test period coming first to a Kaywoodie line and followed by the Kaywoodie brand.

Due to its "Drinkless" stamping this pipe is reported in the Kaywoodie section and not in KB&B's.

(Left side) KBB (In clover) Drinkless, Kaywoodie
(Right side) Aged Bruyère, 7704

"KBB" inside clover stamped on the shank was canceled in 1933.

The lack of "PAT. APP. FOR" stamping would indicate the synchrostem

patent was allready granted (1932) when this pipe was crafted.

Thus this pipe may be dated rather precisely.

The clover stamp with the KBB initials on the shank indicates a pipe
 
crafted in the old KB&B plant at Union City (NJ) prior to 1933.

The PAT. APP. FOR stamping being canceled in 1932, this pipe is one

of the very first Super Grains produced.

More about the PAT. APP. FOR stamping

The first Super Grains appeared in late 1931 or early 1932. They are the only pipes

Kaywoodie produced with the shamrock inlaid in the shank and not on the stem.

Shank embedded logos were stoped by 1938.

Differentiate an early Super Grain from a post WWII Super Grain.

 
 

Early "President"

(Left side)

KBB (In clover) Drinkless, Kaywoodie

Aged Bruyere, 7793

(Bottom)

Synchrostem, PAT. APP. FOR

The PAT. APP. FOR stamping allows to date the pipe above: 1929-1931.

The shape called "President" is a Kaywoodie's distinctive production. It has never been copied.

Until late 1930's pipes were stamped with a 4 digit code (this pipe: 7793).

  • The first 2 numbers (77) designate the style or finish.
  • The last 2 are the shape numbers (93).
  • The numerical code may be reinforced by a letter for variants.

Thus the small "President" pipes are stamped 93S while the larger

bear a 93L (see also this Super Grain pipe).

Later Kaywoodie will cancel the 2 first style/finish numbers keeping the

2 last shape numbers and the letter for variants (i.e. Allbriar or Connoisseur).

 
 

Early Suntan

The "X" that appears to the right of the shape number (7002)

"Made in England" Suntans have been produced more recently.

【Knickerbocker】美國早期煙斗品牌製造廠出品,石楠木製直式煙斗。

第一次碰見的品牌(有這品牌但已找不到資料了),完整度OK~非常古拙。

燃燒室與斗缽口沒燒蝕碳化崩塌情形,斗嘴手工打磨~烏黑晶亮沒咬痕。

斗長 : 15.3,   斗高 : 4.6,   斗寬 : 3.7,   斗口 : 1.9 公分。

0604.

此斗已整體手工打磨大翻新、染色、做膜完畢,缽底砂孔~原廠已填補。

適合當作初學者的練習斗,因為價格親民萬一不小心燒壞了~較不心疼。

原染色為不透明深色,經染成咖啡色能看到木紋時~就能看到填補痕跡。

煙道頭段為3mm鑽孔,榫頭中段濾心處為3mm設定,斗嘴末端以2mm收尾。

0604..

完美主義者請繞過此篇,註:表層砂孔不會影響抽斗功能(也並非裂穿)。

因為砂孔問題所以已反映在價格上,當作平日工作斗或練習斗~很划算。

只要稍稍注意 : 硫化膠榫頭是不可以熱插拔的,否則會造成鬆動漏氣。

萬一您有疏忽已經鬆動的可送回調整,此調整的售後服務是~不收費的。

【一千五百元整】吉普車、重機、越野摩托車、潛友調整鬆動~不收費。

【MILLARD】美國私人俱樂部委請OEM的社團煙斗,石楠木製~彎式煙斗。

有特殊的氣室設計(軍插中段內管銜接),斗身很光滑~毫無刮痕和砂孔。

燃燒室與斗缽口沒燒蝕碳化崩塌情形,斗嘴手工打磨~烏黑晶亮沒咬痕。

斗長 : 14.5,   斗高 : 4.5,   斗寬 : 3.6,   斗口 : 2.1 公分。

0603.

此斗已整體手工打磨大翻新、染色、做膜完畢,重獲新生老斗~很亮麗。

重染的咖啡色色系非常沉穩,煙道口金屬圈打磨得晶亮~整體外觀很美。

煙道頭段3mm鋼管,榫頭中段內置3mm不鏽鋼管設計,斗嘴末端2mm收尾。

很難得的找到該煙斗當年圖片資料.....分享如下 :

未命名

0603..

此斗斗缽內已塗上了保護碳層,您如不想要保護碳層~可自行除去即可。

保護碳層目的只是讓您~無須繼續培養碳層,也無須用蜂蜜自己做碳層。

您如果冷吸法技巧自認高明無須保護碳層...盡可用濕布抹掉保護碳層。

保護碳層只是讓您火紅的煙草"不會直接燒灼斗壁木質部份"..........

 

自行培養碳層初期~只是靠菸油黏在斗壁,然後慢慢的燒成稍硬的碳層。

還沒燒成硬質的碳層前,黏呼呼的菸油煙油會帶著~焦油和菸草的味道。

保護碳層就可避開這味道...直接慢慢燒成硬塊,而不會帶著異味焦臭。

原理很簡單~所以大部份斗廠會貼心塗上保護碳層,別道聽途說嚇自己。

 

碳層原料很簡單~(不是什麼爛木頭燒成的),也不是用石楠木粉燒成的。

碳粉非常便宜(您可使用竹炭粉)非常好買,要不要採用可食用性的....

或是美容用的碳粉請自行決定。網站上買得到~想抹黑的人真是門外漢。

至於要使碳粉黏著的膠不可使用化學膠,可購買糯米膠~真的非常便宜。

 

網路上充內行的人您仔細分析...全說不出所以然,幾乎都是臆測說法。

只不過是刷存在感充內行,看呼應版主~能不能撈點團購時的好處罷了。

做生意要就光明正大地做,F.B上的外國斗商哪個沒私底下聯絡老娘過 ~

開出的底價老娘全知道,為了留口飯給正派經營者吃...不方便說底價。

 

用心理學來看 : 如果老娘賣的貴不是很好嗎 ? 大家賣的便宜都賺翻了。

有這活廣告還須要想盡辦法說壞話嗎 ? 道理很簡單;不就是擋他財路 !

老斗翻新賺的是工資,翻新比做一支全新煙斗更麻煩您大可自己試試看。

光是重新染色您就會碰到瓶頸,這個訣竅事關商業機密只好保留點了吧。

 

那兩個在台灣煙斗界臭名昭彰的煙斗社團大家想信就信,最少您來這兒~

老娘從不推銷煙斗,您想怎麼看怎麼挑老娘從不主導,買過的人摸著...

良心說。售後服務如有瑕疵老娘全擔,那怕全新噴砂煙斗看不出有洞穿~

小砂孔,抽斗時才發覺。那一次案例老娘不說二話,拿回來換吧......。

 

全新煙斗有瑕疵那怕您已抽過老娘還是直接退換,不會像很多斗友送修..

其他斗店無法售後服務或退款的煙斗,一邊送來修一邊國罵或省罵一通。

團購水太深...大家自己小心,明碼標價善盡告知義務售後能維修服務...

比買空賣空您自己分析。您對木材了解多少 ? 這才是團購的超大陷阱。

 

喜歡告人 ? ㄛ..那個小屁孩又去騙了 ? 一個小屁孩來買煙斗的老故事。

跟老娘訂了一支斗讓人下架後...親自來倉庫挑選過兩次煙斗~兩次皆買。

但是原先訂的斗事隔幾個月都不吭一聲,問他如果不要只需打聲招呼...

醬子他就不爽了 ? 隔一陣子後突然拿了三支斗往倉庫一放說你幫我賣掉~

 

這前提是說一元起標即可 ? 老娘回來倉庫一聽這事....立馬知道原因。

別說老娘沒義務幫您賣(他自己有賣場可自己賣),沒有委託書讓老娘賣~

萬一真一元被標走他不認帳 ? 這商業窟窿您會跳嗎 ? 事隔一個月....

跑老娘奇摩部落格留言說要來拿五千元 ? 哈...果不其然一元起標果真~

是幌子(露餡了),這些都有留言記錄保存著...小屁孩真是壞呀 !

 

他氣乎乎的拿回三支斗走了,煙斗是他親自選的沒瑕疵所以跟退貨無關。

然後就在他的網路賣場國罵省罵,好意跟他溝通...他說我們怕他 ????

那...誰是誰非只好留著跟法官說了,這案子超扯...可知台灣司法黑暗。

第一次開庭他推說是商業糾紛,剛開始說就被庭上叫他閉嘴與案情無關。

 

商業糾紛早不用消費者相關機構解決,網路公然辱罵證據確鑿就說證據。

然後希望雙方和解退庭,第二次只有我方出庭只問還有要補充的嗎.....

然後扯得來了,與本案無關的商業糾紛變成判決主角,而商業糾紛從沒..

問過控方逕自採用被告答辯 ? 公然侮辱與商業糾紛無關也是庭上說的...

 

寫過兩次再議上訴...判決文幾乎照抄 ? 公然侮辱以商業糾紛告終.....

所呈上證據一概略過,明眼人都知道這案子被搓掉了。算了........

留給這年輕人一個警惕別年輕輕地留下案底,看來他家裡也花了不少錢。

往事如煙...卻又被煙斗社團提及,好吧...說出事實讓不懂的人閉嘴 !

 

拿老娘開蒜....不就想爭兩個錢嗎 ? 老娘就是看透才不願理這事情....

活到這把年紀又在製作公司、廣播電台、音樂娛樂圈繞幾十年........

就你們心裡那幾個小九九老娘會不懂 ? 你們太嫩了老娘沒擋到您財路..

您也不會大作文章,只要您還有商業行為...兩下就看穿這些小伎倆了。

 

網路垃圾言論多,不懂得過濾就得踩雷。這種買空賣空煙斗社團.......

您能撈小便宜說老娘兩句...老娘決不會介意,這...不就是人生嗎 ?

 

【二千二百元整】此斗翻新費用2600元,翻新費用都賺不完全~超划算。

Preben Holm's Private Collection

 
> Logos & Markings index > Doc index > Preben Holm's...

The "Private Collection" pipes are Preben Holm's most coveted pieces.

They were crafted by the artisan himself from the late 1970's to the end of his career in 1986.

"PREBEN HOLM"

(Block letters or signature)

Additional stampings

"/ PRIVATE COLLECTION"

Gradings

(Letter and /or x0x)

"HAND MADE IN DENMARK"

C5

The stampings on the shanks are always displayed in the same order (see right).

Information in white is systematically stamped, the one in grey is optional.

"Additional stampings" may sometimes occur under the carver's name

(ie: "Traditional", "Fancy", "9m/m", ...)

The "C5" stamping appears on pipes distributed in the USA by CAO

who took over distribution from Lane Ltd. in 1985.

This distinguishing stamping was to avoid warranty issues with pipes

that were not of CAO's distribution.

Gradings: The early Private Collection series were graded with 4 letters (ascending):

A, B, C and D. Those letters may be encircled (older markings) or not.

x0x grading system 101 202 404 606 808
           
Early letter grading system A B C ? D

Later, a "x0x" 5 tiers grading system was introduced (ascending): 101, 202, 404, 606 and 808.

Letter and x0x systems may coexist on the same pipe.

Signature stem logo

Stem logo:

Nearly all pipes of Preben Holm's Private Collection

sport the carver's signature on their stem.

It may sometimes be worn and in a very few cases it

may be missing (replacement stem?).

But Preben Holm's logos with the PH initials do not originally occur on Private Collection pipes.

這支大師收藏級煙斗坊間難尋,收藏那麼多年現在~提前為她找新主人。

釋出金額超親民(不夠老娘換四顆越野粗花胎),比喻好像有點不搭嘎 ?

此斗重在是大師早年作品,尤其此斗的線條美感非常突出~算是經典作。

【二萬八千元整】大師早年經典系列絕版品,指此一支...錯過了可惜。

非常棒的一支老斗,光量產斗毫無砂孔~就屬於頂級系列是毫無疑問滴。

量產斗有些老廠選料非常嚴苛(例如 : 登喜路),其他只有頂級才會有。

此斗憑經驗就知道抽斗品質很優,3mm的主流煙道設計是非常好駕馭滴。

【二千元整】價格超親民又超漂亮,老娘推薦給內行老斗友~值得擁有。

斗身修長有型(附冷凝器)適合長時間叼斗不累~也適合當作品草專用斗。

冷凝器老手們都拔下不用,採用直通抽斗更直接~但須控制好菸草鬆緊。

有叼斗習慣的斗友勿忘加上咬嘴套,否則咬久了~斗嘴會被咬花後貫穿。

【一千五百元整】此斗適合當作品草專用斗,亦可當作新手的~練習斗。

這支傳統直斗的斗型修飾得非常耐看,叼斗時的帥氣+火焰紋是其亮點。

老而彌堅的斗身經過細心打磨整理~比新斗還好看,尤其是養過的老斗。

另;積碳請使用專用修碳刀小心修碳,切勿使用三用刮刀~受力不平均。

【一千八百元整】親民的價格~免吃泡麵即可輕鬆擁有,特別適合新手。

PS.此斗已於2018.10.24售出!!!
