Re: Anyone have one of these

NIce looking pipe! I just picked up a Stanwell Majestic myself and I'm very impressed with how it smokes right out of the box. Better than the new Peterson I just got...although I'm sure I'll be quite pleased with the Pete once it's broken in.

Re: Anyone have one of these

I loved it the first time I saw it then when i looked again it wasn't doing it for me. I looked at again later and loved it more than the first time. I will have to add this sometime.

I say if you like it and can afford it then get it! We only live once...

Re: Anyone have one of these

I really want to pull the trigger I think I just need the extra push to send me reeling down the cliff towards a new pipe. My problem is I bought a new Savinelli Tundra 320 a couple months ago and I feel hesitant to buy another so soon. Even though money isn't an issue in this case.

Hey, dude.... it's called an impulse buy for a reason. What, you need me to justify why you should buy something you want for yourself - too bad. I forbid you to buy that pipe.

I think you will be much happier with a nice Canadian or something...

Best reason I ever found for buying anything is because you want it.

I only buy one or two pipes a year but only because the rotation sits at about 55 pipes now and I figure my cash is better spent on tobacco.

Re: Anyone have one of these

Did I ask you to talk me into buying it, no. I just said I need some extra push; that didn't mean from you or anyone else. Sorry if it looked that way.

Re: Anyone have one of these

i don't have that particular model, but i do have a few stannies & they all smoke well, from the lower grades to the higher grades-i feel safe saying you'll enjoy it-stanwell offers a nice selection in that price range, if that one doesn't grab you the next time you look at it, check out some of their other models

Re: Anyone have one of these

Good advice, thank you. I do think I will be getting a Stannie in the next few days because I also want to try the x-mas cheer, and what better way than that.

For me, this brand and this pipe in particular, really are my kind of pipe.

I have one very similar to this. It is an awesome smoke. The other shapes I smoke have all been easy break-ins and the 2-eggs often have phenomenal grain. Just thought I would whore it up for l'Anatra... since money wasn't an issue
