In THE ULTIMATE PIPE BOOK, Randy Wiley is ranked as "one of America's top freehand pipe carvers." His fans are amongst the most loyal in the business, including us. Once regarded as one of the best kept secrets in the pipe world, Randy uses hot oil to cure his briar wood... just like the Dunhills of old. In his book, RARE SMOKE, Richard Carleton Hacker calls Randy Wiley "One of the mainstays in the world of quality handcarved briars." |

Randy Wiley has been successfully making moderate to high priced pipes for over 23 years. Randy creates all his pipes from Plateau or Ebascean Grecian briar, which shapes are inspired by the briar's wood grain. He cautiously and carefully strives to get the best presentation from every briar block. He treats the briar with hot oil to enhance its beauty and smoking qualities, then uses a special sanding technique he calls a trade secret. What ever the secret is, it makes for a finish that is smooth as glass. Randy achieves a rich color stain for his pipes by custom mixing his stains until he gets exactly the effect he wants. Finally, all his pipes are finished with a buffed coat of carnuba wax. |
