Hello, I have been trying to absorb as much as I can on this hobby and every now and then I'll come across a post where someone will say, "I don't own any pipes by an American artisan." Or something along those lines. Anyway, why is that? Can someone explain this pipe owning stance? Granted, during my groggy midnight pipe googling I may have stumbled across the same threads without knowing it but I think I've seen this more than a few times.
