i am 50/50 on sandblasts... this is a very nice one.

As of late I have been sandblast crazy :puffpipe:

i am quite fond of sandblasts and rustications; that is quite a nicely done piece.

So dragon, is one to assume you've purchased the above beauty or are you wrestling with the decision?

If the former, than congrats on a very nice doggie.

If the later, GO FOR IT (-:

That's a nice looking pipe.

 

[atwageman]

Nice choice!!!!

 

[eaglerico]

I like the "thumb print" look on one of the sides. Really nice.

 

[thesmokindragon]

wrestling with the decision

 

[olderthandirt]

Ah.

Well allow me to act as an enabler and repeat, GO FOR IT!

Thanks...the PAD list continues to grow...also this one has been haunt'in me ::

 

[bubbadreier]

Wow that one is a beauty!

 

[nikko]

eaglerico is right, the fingerprint on the side is what really strikes me about this pipe.

I'm a bent and saddle bit guy, so the Cavicchi jumps out at me aesthetically. No more pipes for me, for a while....but when I jump back in, it will very likely be a Cavicchi or Castello bent bulldog. I love the button my Castello, that might make the difference, it hangs just right with minimal effort. I've never smoked a Cavicchi, but I am continually astounded as to how well my Castello smokes. Curious as to which way you go, looks like a difficult decision!

Act now! Supplies are limited and time is running out! :lol:

Castello is considered in Italy the Ferrari of the pipe.To my taste and for my knowdledge is much better than Dunhill.Dunhill pipes have less fantasy and are much more machined than Castello.Cavicchi that you present in pc are now in the same quality of Castello.We have to say that in Italy it's possible to find now the most complete selection of high quality pipes.Artisans are at the top and are actually a real squadron.No needs to say something about italian briar.It's at the top and easy to find
