He was trained by the top names in the Danish pipe making business; including Poul Rasmussen, Sven Bang, Sven Knudsen, Emil and Jess Chonowitsch. He worked at WO Larsen for ten years advancing from carver to master carver to supervisor. He began producing the Bentley line in 1986 and the Former line in 1991. Hans currently carves about 500 Former pipes per year. Former’s pipes are both beautiful in form and great smokers. He always finds the pipe in the briar. If you don’t have at least one Former in your collection, it’s not complete.
