Misha Revyagin started making pipes in 2000. His workshop is in Thailand, where he works, alone, listening to classical music " to give his pipes positive energy".

Revyagin is self-taught and admires Bo Nordh, he makes about 20 pipes per year. His briar comes from Jaume Hom in Spain and his ebonite from Germany. Misha describes himself as a briar maniac and only makes smooth pipes. He uses a large variety of materials for adornments ranging from mammoth ivory, boxwood and even plastic to titanium (he doesn't work with silver). Revyagin is one of the early pioneers of the reverse calabash engineering, most would say he is the father of this style of pipe which has gained so much popularity in the last few years.
