Man that's a pretty pipe! I love the grain on the shank, it looks like fire almost. I found a Stanwell Authentic I really like in that shape, but they're sold out. Just ordered my Series III 320 KS.They color quite nicely.
May I ask the shape number on this one? I love those thick walls and the concave to the top of the bowl. Very pretty lines on that.
Why are you on this thread! This is a Savinelli thread! Sav's rock!!!
I'd like to think he's just taking the piss... he did end up sharing a photo of his Series III. So my seeing eye dog, who is mute, told me.
Haha... I guess I picked the right side. All of my briars are Savs.
121ks. The stummel is machined as good as any other Savinelli, this one has a fill as you can see. The stem is a little beefy but very solid overall. It is an excellent smoker and the fact that it only costed like 30 euros makes it even better. They colour pretty nicelly and you might get some good grain if lucky. Best choice in that money range.
Highly recommend them. And just to beat a dead horse, yes, the color well with use.
I've had this rhodie for about 4 years and it's a work horse. The 320 I've had for about 2 years

Well, after the USPS completely losing track of it for a lot longer than I had expected, it's finally here. I can't find a frickin' fill on it! Easily my favorite smoker after just the first bowl, but it is a bit reluctant to accept my bigger tapered bristle cleaners... the tip gets hung up. Just gotta let it cool and remove the stem to clean
Thanks for the advice, guys... can't wait for a 311 KS like donjgiles'
I had the same problem with using a pipe cleaner on my first Savinelli 3. It also had a restricted draw. I used a Dremel cutting bit to open the hole on the bit and now its one of the best smoking pipes I have. It takes a pipe cleaner with no problems.
Here is a couple of pics of the 320 when I first got it many moons ago. I have not put any wax or cleaner on either.
Do you use a polish on your pipes? They look like they have a sheen.
Holy shit, dude! Looks like you hit the Series III jackpot with that baby. You may notice fills a bit more as the pipe colors, but there don't seem to be any obvious ones.
In terms of the pipe cleaner have you tried twisting (spinning) the pipe cleaner and gently pushing forward where it gets hung up? I had a similar problem with a Rossi 8673 and about 90% of the time I am able to get a cleaner through. Like, 100% on the second or third try with a different pipe cleaner.
