COBS!!! I absolutely hate them, I’ve tried to like them. I had them in every configuration and all I could think is I could do better at a family reunion than dating my sister.
As we say down here, "If'n she ain't good enough for her OWN family, she SURE ain't good enough for our'n!"
Good to see you, Mr. Digger!

Never smoked Dunhill pipe. But their shape isn't exactly what I want. Outlandish shaped pipes aren't my thing either. I do enjoy more traditional shapes. Peterson pipes do it for me.
I don't really like most "freehand" pipes. There is some nice ones, but way too many look like the carver just rounded off a briar block a bit and put a premade stem in it.
It could have been worse though, it could have been this one stuck in your head.
Embers skull pipe... too much like real crime scenes I've been on, would make the smoke hard to relax. 
Falcons (I don't get it) and
Dunhill (only because of price compared to others, I know they're fine pipes.)

I've loved skulls since I was a kid, could never get it out of my head.Embers skull pipe... too much like real crime scenes I've been on, would make the smoke hard to relax.
I collect them in many forms.
It's where I only dump the dottle and clean it right before smoking it again.?
I love my Dunhills. I don't hate any manufacturer, but there are a lot of shapes I avoid, including almost all freehands.
What is this dottle of which you speak? All of my pipes smoke to the bottom of the bowl and all my tobaccos burn to a fine white ash. <grin?
I can't stand the Savinelli 320. It's easily the most epic fail of a pipe that I have ever bought. Feels like I'm smoking out of a bowling ball with a toilet paper tube for a stem. I only keep it around because it makes such a fantastic doorstop.
