Re: Need a vote on which pipe to get

I will preface my comments that they are only my opinion. Personally, I'm not necessarily a fan of either. However, if pressed, I would say the Tinsky one looks nicer. Actually, if the Tinsky one was stained, I would say it is much superior. But, on the other hand, you're going to pay for it too. So, I'm glad I could help. Good luck

Re: Need a vote on which pipe to get

Both are very nice. The Tinsky looks "unfinished" like a Savinelli Natural which are finished, but have no stain or wax on them. If it's like a Natural then as you smoke it it will darken over time some folks like that I know I do. So I'd go for the Tinsky. Let us know what you decide.

Re: Need a vote on which pipe to get

I have almost the same tsuge and it's a great smoker, but I also have a Tinsky that's a beaut. I think you're pretty safe either way honestly. Just flip a coin and enjoy.

Re: Need a vote on which pipe to get

I've got that same Tsuge, it's a nice pipe and smokes good. The bowl could be larger though. The Tinsky looks nice if it is bigger I'd get it. If they are the same size I would save $50.

Re: Need a vote on which pipe to get

I knew someone would say both...
I'm leaning toward the Tinsky as well.

Any general comments about Tinsky quality and smokability?

I'll let you know.
