I'm still all over the place with shapes. It just really depends on what mood I'm in. I had 3 or 4 freehands back 12-15 months or so ago, but ended up selling them as I felt they were too large for me at the time. Now, I do wish I would've kept one of them for my collection. I have around 75-80 pipes of all kinds of shapes and sizes with the good part of them needing some kind of TLC in one form or another. When I pick up a Dunhill or other top pipes, I usually end up selling them to fund my hobby of pipes and cigars. I ended up with a good amount of "smokers" of all kinds. I "thought" I had a guy that would slick up my pipes in trade for some pipes, so I sent him 5 or 6 pipes back when to see what kind of work he did, but he suddenly disappeared off the face of the earth. Of course, he may have passed on and I don't know it as he won't answer my emails etc. Isn't that ironic, don't you think?....

Errrrr.....back to the subject......I don't have a clue what shape I prefer......
