Having read pretty much everything ever published by the Tolkien's multiple times over the last 20 years, I have always been an Istari guy and thus more interested in Elvish culture than the dwarves...but whatever. That Dwarve pipe is freaking hard core. It really captures the spirit intended. I can totally see a dwarf sitting at the gates to the Lonely Mountain puffing away heartily on that. It may be my favorite of Matt's many designs
