Well, I wanted a big ass Lovat…

[Ben.R.C]

This Jimmy Craig ELX Ashton is bigger than a GG Castello (included for reference). I hope it smokes as good as it looks and feels in hand!

Very nice enjoy.

Criteria met! Congrats!

Go big. Or go home.

Nice pipe.
As the Godfather of soul would say.
It's a man's world.

That is a good lookin pipe. Is it heavy? And what's the length?

Congrats sir.

 

[jpberg]

Good luck with the clench.

 

[ashdigger]

It feels good.

 

[ashdigger]

Hopefully it smokes as nice as it looks.

I really like the lovat shape. I've got a £70 Savinelli that is a great little smoker. Nowhere near as big or spiffy as your lovat, though.

Lovely looking pipe

Papa's got a brand new pipe! You're starting to become the hardest working man in pipe business! Enjoy!

That deserves a good English to last 3 hours in a pleasant sunlight.

I prefer pipes with bigger bowls nowadays. That Lovat really does look the business. I love the lovat's simple form and classic lines.

If it smokes as good as it looks it'll be a real winner.

I've got a straight billiard just slightly larger. The leverage of a pipe like that makes them easily clenchable regardless of weight.

Big pipes are for my weekends and evenings, It’s nice to have 20 ish minute bowls during working hours.

I’ll have to work up the that level of clench

In regards to the lovat shape, something about the long shank and the saddle stem just looks dope. Canadians are cool also but lovats are definitely my favorite straight pipe shape.

I’d like to see that billiard, what kind?
