Peterson Pipe of the Year 2023
Yep..it sucks to have fills on such an expensive pipes....I just recently checked Savinelli Punto oro pipe for 250$ and it did have 2 fills at the areas I could not live with...If good briar becoming scarce and expensive plus current inflation -the fills on 250$ will become new normal..Specially...- NC TX ID pipeman
