【Dr.Grabow】美國早期量產煙斗大廠出品，石楠木製傳統型彎式煙斗。

屬中大型彎斗，石楠木樹瘤非常細密...紋路豐富，整體完整度非常優。

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 : 14.0，   斗高 : 4.7，   斗寬 : 3.9，   斗口 : 1.8 公分。

此斗已整體手工打磨大翻新、染色、做膜完畢，做膜後鏡面效果~超優。

拍照打燈後感覺色澤稍淺，但原斗色澤呈穩重的咖啡色系~超古拙美麗。

原廠處理斗嘴弧度非常正確~(不會誇張)，無須擔心偏燒斗缽口的後方。

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。

附上該廠歷史資料，與早期該廠其他斗型和簡介......分享如下 :

Dr. Grabow pipes began with luis B. Linkman († 1957), of the M. Linkman and Co.

of Chicago in 1932 (Pat # 1 896 800). Linkman and Co. ceased producing the Dr. Grabow pipes around 1953.

After this date the brand was owned by Henry Leonard and Thomas (HLT), Inc. of Queens,

New York and produced by Sparta Pipes Inc.
In 1969, US Tobacco acquired Sparta Pipes and rights to Dr. Grabow.
Lane Ltd. acquired the Dr. Grabow property from US Tobacco. Lane Ltd.

came under ownership of RJ Reynolds and British American Tobacco in about 2000.
Dr. Paul E. Grabow died in 1965 at age 97.
Production (2006): ~250,000 pipes/year

The earliest Dr. Grabow pipes are stamped with both Linkman's and Dr. Grabow,

described as Bruyere, or Italian Briar.

Pre-1944 model names included the SPECIAL, the DELUXE (this pipe),

and the SUPREME.

The Linkman's stamp was discontinued around 1944.

Linkman's Dr. Grabow pipes are also stamped with a 4-digit

code indicating the model and shape.

One of the earliest pipes of the RJ Reynolds era.

金屬半圓形榫頭不怕熱插拔，更可方便用久後的榫頭鬆動~可自行調整。

調整方式:用尖嘴鉗戳入濾心處稍稍搖晃，目的是將榫頭撐開修正鬆動。

這是早期斗廠一個貼心的設計，更可中途拔出斗嘴~疏通煙道頭段阻塞。

【一千八百元整】非常漂亮當作老手日常用斗~或新手練習斗綽綽有餘。
