So I've picked up two pipes out of the basket at my local with H.I.S on one side and made in Italy on the other. These are quickly becoming favorites in my rotation. I'm just wondering does anybody know anything about the maker of these, I'd love to check them out and see what other styles they have available without having to pour through the catalogs at the shop.

They are made by Gardesana, an Italian firm. I belive, atleast thats what i have found.

I have several and the grain is good, but smoke a little hot at times with aros. Great with ye ole english blends.

Welcome to the forum

Cheers

Jeff

The glories of Google show that they are common at B&M shops. I also found them at serveral online stores. Good pipe at good price. You won't be able to sell it at a profit on eBay, but you will be able to enjoy it for years.

Sweet thanks will be going out there tomorrow.
Just to clarify, I am talking about the Fairfield location. I haven't been to the new one on the east side.

I have four H.I.S. pipes and all of them are really good smokers. The briar is of decent quality, the drilling is well executed, and the draw is excellent. The last one I bought today for $32.99 and the other three were similarly priced. In my opinion H.I.S. pipes are a level above any basket pipe and are excellent value for the money.
