I think the smoke threw the focus off on the stem.

Chenet's Cake in Polinski Poker, I ended up not finishing this bowl, DGTing it for tomorrow. I think it'll really blow my mind and by that I may not survive, good lord this stuff is potent.

Enjoying some Dunhill my mixture 965 in my Peterson Father's Day 2014 606s. Bzero007 was slacking on his piping and missed out.

You're the first person on here to have a Granhill besides myself: they were the local shop pipe brand in town here back in the 80s ( I stole a bunch from my dad). Mine have always been great & affordable pipes.
You are the first person to provide me with even a shred of information on this pipe. Searches didn't uncover anything as to its identity. Where is "local" for you? You have a picture of your Granhill? I find mine still smokes a little on the hot side, however it got reamed pretty aggressively so I'm using the Carter Hall for build up a bit of cake to see if that'll help. All and I really like the pipe.
I will share a photo when I get a chance, I don't have any on this machine (though I sure that someone who was bored enough could fine one or two in the 464 pages of this thread!).
Granhills were made by Michael Kabik who was big in the 70s doing freehands for Chp-X and Sven Lar. As best I can tell, Granhill was a store brand for the local Smoker's Cove here in Fargo, ND. I doubt he personally carved them, but he was the one who oversaw their production. I have seen enough of them around in the surrounding states (MN, IA, etc) to think that he may have sold them through other outlets as well. More info on Kabik: http://pipedia.org/wiki/Kabik
I have a variety of them that I "inherited"/stole from my dad when I started smoking a pipe including a few freehands, a rhodesean, an apple, a prince and a small dublin. I had a few others, but I returned them to him when he decided he wanted to get back into smoking as well. I have never noticed them to be TOO hot, but that is because I smoke too fast so most of my pipes smoke fairly warm...

And at least one has ended up in London Ontario Canada. That's cool, thank you for the information I very much enjoyed reading through it.

So after reading your post, and the attached information I packed a bowl in my Granhill, Carter Hall, in an attempt to get some cake built up.
At any rate on the bottom of the stem it is stamped Made in London England.
Finally home today after a few weeks up in the northwest. I do believe that calls for a celebration...
