Counting my MM cobs I have 32 pipes in my collection currently, so 20% is about 6.5, so I'll round up to 7. The ones I'd keep are in bold. That gives me a pipe for each day of the week, but that just doesn't seem like enough.

I have more pipes than I could ever justify needing but the thought of parting with a single one of them is far too painful to contemplate. Of course that's coming from a guy that still owns pipes he bought from Peretti's over fifty years ago. Try as I might I could no more pick some to go and some to stay. I guess if I could only save some in a fire it would be the GBD 9438s. They have always been my favorite smokers.

I have ca. 50-60 pipes, so ten to twelve is what I keep if you get past my front door.
Dunhill billiard, 1965, sentimental value of a gift from a dear departed cousin.

Darling Canadian Barling (spell check for first word!) I bought in college.

Black blast Sav billiard

Meer billiard, also 50 years old, bought new

Dunhill black blast spigot dog

Barling billiard military mount

Pete full bent Aran

Parker straight grain bent billiard

Wilke full bent bulldog

Very old meer provenance unknown, carved face, (I don't smoke it).

Interesting... I notice your baby Rad-Desian didn't make the cut. When you're ready to part ways with that little beauty... :lol:
