The Hampton Nautical boatswain's pipe (pronounced "bosun's") is one of the oldest and most distinctive pieces of nautical equipment. The boatswain's pipe, whistle, or flute, was used in Greece and Rome to keep the stroke of galley slaves. This beautifully detailed chrome navy boatswain's pipe comes with a quality 39 inch chrome chain lanyard. With a traditional anchor design inlaid on both sides, this fully functional boatswain's pipe measures 5 inches (12.7 cm) long, and weighs at 1.6 ounces (45 grams) including the chain.----The boatswain's pipe comes with a beautiful solid black rosewood storage and display case.
