When You Buy A New Briar ...

Same here. If a blend smokes particularly nice in a particular pipe, I'll tend to smoke that blend in said pipe whenever I reach for said blend. Follow that? But I by no means reserve any pipe for any specific blend.

I usually avoid aromatics of the PG saturated variety but when I do reach for one of those it's a cob for sure.



I like your pipe collection; straight billiards all the way and no bullsh!t. Very functional.

Thank you! I do prefer straights and the billiard is my favorite shape. I also like bulldogs and sometimes pots.

Thank you! I do prefer straights and the billiard is my favorite shape. I also like bulldogs and sometimes pots.

Same here. Great minds think alike! I like the classic shapes. Except that my "billiard" is a Liverpool - a billiard with a longer shank and shorter bit. Less vulcanite to keep shiny. And my bulldog is a "squat bulldog", with the shallow, broad chamber that I like.
