Better view from his video on Carolina Red Flake -

Normally Shane talks about the pipe he’s using in the Tasting Notes. Can you help us out, @shaneireland?
Shane says it's a Former in the last paragraph: Carolina Red Flake w/Perique Pipe Tobacco Review | Cornell & Diehl - https://www.smokingpipes.com/smokingpipesblog/single.cfm/post/tasting-notes-cornell-diehls-carolina-red-flake-perique
It looks a lot like this one: Former Smooth Apple Sterling - https://www.bisgaard-pipes.com/former-smooth-apple-sterling.html

I knew pipes went for this much but it’s still shocking to see a “regular guy” (whatever that means) like Shane having a pipe like this.
Yeah I mean they’re not wrong but damn I’ve never spent that much money on something that wasn’t a necessity. But maybe a Former is a necessity? OK well I’ll buy one now and find out.Great marketing …you too can have a Former.️
Having one might mind meld you into “status believing” it the greatest smoker you own, even though it might’nt smoke significantly better than most any pipe you already possess. His work, and much of the Danish aesthetic in pipes is appealing & very much appreciated/sought after…hence the premium
. However, never personally smoking or handling one…I can’t speak to it. Love to see your selection once you decide which agrees with you best.

I've got a few in that pride range. Not as devastating as you'd imagine. Formers though just never appealed to me.
Probably the next one I decide on will be this kind of danish:Having one might mind meld you into “status believing” it the greatest smoker you own, even though it might’nt smoke significantly better than most any pipe you already possess.

More and more I’m surprised by you, Duane. You are easily one of the most interesting men on this forum.
But if I went that route I’d be worse off than the Tiger King.
