介绍一个顶级烟斗制做者-Teddy Knudsen

上海烟斗客

In 1965 a young Danish cabinet maker joined his brother at the workship of W.O. Larsen and began training as a pipe maker. The natural talent and ability of Teddy Knudsen was soon apparent and within two years he had begun making pipes under his own name. Using the best of Corsican briar, Knudsen continues today to turn out magnificent briar works of art in small numbers. In fact, he has joined the elite few like Madonna, Cher and Tiger who are recognized the world over by just their first name. The Teddy pipe is eagerly sought by collectors the world over. Teddy puts no grade stamps on his pipes, just the famous eagle logog since every pipe that comes from his shop that he deems worthy of selling is of the highest quality. Knoxcigar is proud to be one of the selct few U.S. shops chosen to offer the workmanship of "The Teddy".

FYI, if you are going to get a pipe from this maker, try to find Straight grain pipes from WO Larsen from the 70's and 80's.  Most likely they were made by him.  Since many pipe artisans commissioned their pipes for Larsen during those times, you should look for thin and long stem, which is Teddy's trademark.  You will be saving at least half of what you will pay for his pipes at current pricing.  EX.  Eagle about $3000 while Larsen Pearl about $1500 both new.  Peace
