    Deluxe System or Spigot? Help me Decide!

    Deluxe and the System Spigot smokes about the same. But internally, they are slightly different. System Spigot doesn't have "condenser" bit at the end of the tenon. But honestly, I don't notice any difference while smoking.

    I'm Bloody Livid: Amazon Refuse to Sell Me a Set of Kitchen Knives.

    You are in UK. Of course, they won't sell you a knife set. They are designated as deadly weapon in UK. I hope they will let you keep your butter knives :) With NHS, British teeth don't look like much of a cutting tool. J/K!!!

    A Stark Warning

    It all depends on the pipe and the person smoking it. I always clean as soon as I'm done smoking. And I do take my pipes apart middle of smoking also. Some times, the tenon will get stuck. I think that's fashionable like JRRT.
