What pipe are you eyeballing?

[Alligator Gar]

I'm still very new to pipes so I've just been thinking about getting this Dr Grabow

Or this starter kit.

What do you guys think of the starter kits out there? I'd like one that comes with a carrying case.

Have you checked out the newbie pipe trade in this forum? It'll jump start your adventure.

Get the omega. Smokes well. I got the smooth. Didn't have the rustic or it would be mine.

Just curious to see what pipe everyone is eyeballing. Whether it's something you'll end up buying or just one that's a pipe dream (see what I did there!)?

I'm eyeballing this Castello. I don't know anything about them, but I'm really digging it. Unfortunately, it's well out of my price range.

Hi Ryan,

Man, this pic slapped me with some memories.

Castello makes wonderful pipes and they're expensive, (I'm smoking my only one as I write) but they hold value well. This bent egg, with the acrylic ferrule and military mount is a fairly rare Castello shape and treatment, understated elegance.

This shape, in a fiammata grade, almost caused me a world of grief with SwissAir customs around 1982 (the memories).

You've got a good eye and thanks for posting.

As far as what I'm eyeballing, it's always Barling and Ser Jacopo. I search on other brands but those two is a several time a day thing for me.

I'm pretty easy, just want to remember to get one or two of these next time I order tobacco. I still haven't tried a cob yet.

@Horsefeathers willed this link to me after buying its good looking sister:

It is the shape I want but it's over a hundo and it's blasted, which is not my preference. I'm wavering.

Jim,

You did pretty well with your Ben Wade but I'll keep an eye out for bent apples on eBay that seem to be a good value.
