Kaywoodie
2003 Pipe of the year
Bent Bulldog # 87
About the maker:
The history of S. M. Frank & Co. spans nearly a
century and half of pipe making, supporting our claim as the "oldest pipe
house in America." S. M. Frank, as it exists today, is a combination of
some of the biggest names in pipe making from the early part of the 20th
century. The pipe names Kaywoodie, Yello-Bole, Reiss-Premier, DeMuth, Medico,
Heritage and Frank are familiar to generations of pipe smokers. In September of
1997, S. M. Frank released the "Gold Series" of Kaywoodie pipes,
marking the first new release in over a decade. This new series is 8 different
finishes with push bit type mouthpieces, without the "drinkless screw
attachment" or other metal condensers. The pipes are made of larger, extra
quality briar with rubber or lucite mouthpieces . With this addition to the
line, Kaywoodie pipes are available in 18 different finishes with about 12
different shapes per finish. While S. M. Frank and its predecessor's have gone
through many changes over the years, the focus has remained, to offer a quality
pipe at a price that the average pipe smoker can afford.
