All Catterall Pipes are stamped on the shank with our logo and individually numbered. The current grading system ranges from Grade C through Grade A, reflecting the quality and consistency of the briar’s grain on the pipe. Three Signature-grade pipes, which are not stamped with a grade, have been produced thus far. | All Catterall Pipes are stamped on the shank with our logo and individually numbered.

Catterall Pipes offers a special series of pipes dedicated to the USS North Carolina, which is under restoration at Wilmington, NC. The wooden collars on the acrylic stems of these pipes are made of teak from the original decking of the battleship. They get stamped "NC" in addition to the usual nomenclature, and ask $25 above the regular price point for the grade; the $25 from the sale of each of these pipes is donated to the battleship's restoration fund. | Catterall Pipes offers a special series of pipes dedicated to the USS North Carolina, which is under restoration at Wilmington, NC.
