Over a long period, like so many of you, I have a really nice collection of pipes that I have gathered over the years. There are some I just hate to smoke because of their sheer craftsmanship and beauty. But, most, I DO smoke. And like many of you, I have my favorites that just seem to smoke perfectly. My favorite (x2) is my Peterson Sherlock Holmes Baskervilles FT Smooth. They just seem to smoke any blend perfectly with that required cup of java!!
However, even though I do have some fine artisan pipes, I see some pipes in the thousands and I am taken back by this cost. Yes, they are beautiful, but that is ALOT for a pipe. I also collect watches which can be expensive, but I also keep a cap on those as well.
Do many of you feel the same way, I guess it comes down to your income and your level of acceptability?
Thanks!
