Erik Nording Freehand

[eaglebleyes]

I am a cool or cold weather smoker. I don't smoke much during the summer heat. With that being said since it it getting cooler a little bit here in Fl does anyone have any comments on Nordings freehand? Recomend or is something else a better smoker? I just like the style.

Most pipes do well in the cold. If you've got your eye on a Nording, it'll serve you well.

Was basically just wondering if it was a decent pipe. It's a cool 65 degrees here now lol so not cold lol...Just enjoy my pipe in cooler weather for some reason I can't/ don't smoke hardly any when the heat index is like 117 outside

Absolutely

Have one and love it, they hold a LOT of tobacco.

 

[anotherbob]

most pipes you can buy are decent.

 

[eaglebleyes]

One purchase I will never regret!

 

[eaglebleyes]

Best purchase I have made

My wife got that for my birthday back in 2019 NOS for $60.

Looks like the one I smoked the wacky tobacco out of back in the day

Though Nording only made a few of the ducks they still pop up from time to time. Several members have had them but they are quite small.

I own a freehand and a Double Silver.
Excellent pipes. I'd have to say that Nording is of the highest quality.

I haven't had a lot of luck with Nordings. So i haven't got one in a long time.

I don’t have one, but I’ve been looking at them. One thing I like about them is those freehand stems seem to be easily replaceable. I see spare stems for them at smoking pipes

 

[eaglebleyes]

I would have to say they fit your hand nicely if you have bigger meat claws and hold enough tobacco...Also the one pictured is very lightweight..lighter than most of my other pipes actually.

The Nord-Coat line are an interesting take on briar pipes made to look like meerschaum.
