    How Hard is it to Burnout a Pipe?

    Thank you. I’ve really think I just have a lot of sentimental value attached to the specific ones I worry about because of them being Rathbone models and not being available anymore.

    Devil Anse Pipes?

    I’m looking for a pipe that would be good for slipping in my case for traveling, I’ve decided I like the Devil Anse shape. Could someone point me to a few makers they know for decent ones? I know of Moonshine, are there any others you trust?
