Erik is probably the longest serving hand pipe maker, actively crafting fine pipes, in the world today. During his career, Erik trained many of the renowned pipe makers, including the late Bjarne Nielsen known to many UK pipe retailers.
Freehands are often something of a speciality to Pipe makers as they take time, great skill and experience to produce well and this isn’t as profitable as mass production of standard shapes. However it is something Erik Nording and his carvers have perfected over the years with the majority of their offerings being one-off freehands.
As with most freehand pipes the Nording Freehands are larger than average pipes with good deep bores perfect for a long evening in front of the fire. The briar walls tend to be thick so the pipe will stay cool and yet they are remarkably light due to the quality of the Briar Erik Nording uses.
