I have a couple of Beckers and a Becker & Musico. They all smoke well, not better than anything else I smoke, but well. The pipe's only part of the equation. If the smoker is inexperienced, doesn't know moisture levels for his tobacco, doesn't know packing and cadence, no pipe is going to deliver.
Are Beckers worth the money? Well, let me put it this way. If you love the aesthetic you're going to have to pay for it. So what's the aesthetic worth to you?
