The first manager of the pipe workshop was Sven Knudsen, but he soon left to make pipes under his own name. The next manager was Hans Nielsen, also known as "Former" (named after the late British actor George Formby, whom he was said to resemble. Coincidentally, in Danish, "Former" means "shapes"). Under the management of Former the workshop grew and W.Ø.Larsen pipes became a prominent name abroad. Among the prominent pipemakers educated here were Else Larsen (Denmark's first female pipemaker),Poul Ilsted, Ph. Vigen, Teddy Knudsen, Tonni Nielsen, and Peter Hedegaard.

A typical pipe from Benni, who did the Pearls and straight grains in the WØ work shop for many years. The pipe is half bent, it’s a free hand in perfect straight grain and stamped “straight grain 4” by WØLARSEN.
