Been looking around for a poker and with so many to choose from it can be a tough decision. I finally found one I know will probably provide a great smoke.

That's a great looking Boswell. JM does a lot of those swirl stems. I like the dark color too, compliments that stem well.

Great looking smoker there Brother. I have been thinking about another poker pipe, they are some of my favs...I was thinking about another Balkovec, IMHO one of the "Kings" of the Poker Pipe Shape :worship:
This is the one my PAD beast has his eye on :?

I really like the divided finish on the bowl, and the Cumberland stem really makes it stand out among pokers.

My major poker is a LaRocca with somewhat camp rusticated carving. It was so corny, I passed it up, but I

kept thinking about it (there at my local independent pipe shop). Finally, I decided if it was still there, I'd buy

it, and I did. It seems to get more impressive with age. It's gone from corny to rather stately.
