I have been looking at the Big Ben pipes and this design has really appealed to me. Anyone have experience with the brand. Any advise or experience would be great. I have been looking at their Churchwarden series as well.
Thanks in advance

I never even noticed the length, that may a tad too short. Thanks for catching that.

Personally I like nose warmers. They fit in your pocket and you have a pipe to take a sip from on the go.when I started smoking a pipe I wanted church wardens but now I like small bowl nose warmers.

Big Ben is a good brand. pipesandcigars.com also has some highly competitive prices on this brand. Be sure to pay attention to the filter on these pipes. Some have no filter, which is preferred by many, others have a 9 mm filter. You can smoke the 9 mm filter pipes without a filter, but some find that too open a draw, or you can buy an adapter, or you can continue to buy the filter if you enjoy that way of smoking. Just figure out and know what you're doing. I have a no-filter Big Ben churchwarden that I bought on a very good discount at pipesandcigars and I consider it a good pipe. It's a straight churchwarden, which goes with a Sav fully curved version, in my avatar, which is the original churchwarden shape. Good luck and feel free to ask questions here, which is one central purpose of Forums.

It says it's sold. Was that you?
Negative, looks like I missed the boat. Probably should have just bought it as I like the shape. Thanks for all the help everyone. Being new to this hobby there really is a learning curve.....
