I bought the same one and the 2 pipe roll complete set from their etsy shop. High quality and arrived in a week to NC. The big one is bulky but it is the travel size so thats ok with me. The 2 pipe roll is the one i have been using every day and i just love it.
I love leather, I love leather working myself, I love the old school style of leather pipe rolls... but god they always just end up so bulky and enormous they're just not worth it. You end up carrying around 1/2 a hide just to have a pipe or two and accompanying accessories. So you're carrying more leather than you are gear. Not bad for extended travel I guess but just not super practical for daily carry. For daily carry I end up using Maxpedition or Grey Ghost Gear pouches for carrying my pipe kit. Far more compact, more secure, less expensive, and available in numerous sizes and setups to suit the outing. Specifically I really like the the Maxpedition FR-1 Medical Pouch for 3-4 pipes + accessories, the Grey Ghost Gear Slim Medical Pouch for 2-3 pipes plus accessories, and the Maxpedition Entity Modular Pocket for 1-2 pipes plus accessories.
I actually got one from this guy when he posted his store on Facebook, on the tobacco group. I loved it, but I had the same issue that it was really really bulky, amazing quality but very bulky. I gave it away as a gift, but I did buy another one from the guy, and I use that one every day
Thank you Bradley for this review based on you comments I bought a pipe roll from him. Absolutely 5 Star + leather product. as I now live in Turkey I shall be buying more products from him. And Levent is such a nice guy with great communications and his products are not expensive as you say. I would add to your review the pipe roll is bulky based on the size of your pipe bowl. But if you fold it half and half so it resembles a book it will fit your man bag perfectly, where else would you carry it.? There's a lot of stuff in there.
Lol I have the vintage leather 2-pipe roll from chacom and after some wearing it holds two to three pipes, a lighter, a czech tool or tamper and about 20 pipe cleaners and it's MORE compact then both of these. As you do, I don't put the small tobacco pouch (which is also included) in it because I got the tin in the daypack aswell.
Very cool for storage more than travel I think. Although i do use one I made myself for travel. No too dissimilar to these but I like my design better. Variety of leather thickness and made specifically to my pipe and accessories. Im Australian and I don't think I could make them to sell at this price. Mine would be closer to $160usd. I don't sell them but that's what I'd need to charge to turn a modest profit after materials and time. Prob 2 hrs work?
These look really nice. I paid about the same for a similar roll with much thinner leather and it is still bulky when loaded up. I’ve been considering a tool bag from Saddleback Leather for a pipe bag.
As others have mentioned those are just too bulky. The leather looks very thick. IMO very few Pro’s and many Con’s. Can buy a much nicer one from Amazon.

I have had one of these 3 pipe rolls from LWA for a few months now. Yeah it's bulky but still very handy for weekends away etc

I've been using the single pipe roll for the past few days, and I have to say that I actually like it quite a bit.

👀 old sea rock Canadian? Not sure I've seen that in your videos yet
I have been using one of these for awhile now. I love it
May I know what type of watch you are wearing?
These look luxurious-what can the valet be used for?
What pipe roll do you currently use?
I was using this one: ua-cam.com/video/JnZ-ZQ-N104/v-deo.html - but I've been using the LWA for the last week. I like it!
Would a 50 gr. tin fit in the slot where the T pouch goes?
Nope! I just tried!
You need to check out the northwest gentleman pipe roll. It puts that thing to shame.
I'd love to review one sometime!
IMO pipe rolls tend to be huge affairs, why not just carry a backpack instead
I use one every day! IN my backpack. :-)

Thanks for watching! I would say, for my uses, the three pipe roll IS too big, but the single pipe version works great for me.
Ok, between the grunting like things are hard to accomplish that you do way too often and the flower grandma shirt, I can’t do it.
Turn down that shirt! I can't hear the video.
