Two things on the second pipe...I REALLY wish you would have used some plain black ebonite, and I would have liked to have seen the transition piece of ebonite slightly thicker. I think having it a little thicker would help to balance the larger knuckles of the bamboo (or maybe it's that the shank is a little to thin for the size of the bowl, not sure.) That being said, I still like the pipe very much. Maybe, the bend in the stem is just a tad bit too much, but not bad. All the transitions looks nice and tight and the bowl symmetry looks nice. I will humbly accept this pipe and your offer to pay shipping to Papua New Guinea, :lol:
