I love that pipe Brian. Id grab it if I didn’t have others on order.Briar and Strawberry are close cousins - very similar in smoking characteristics. I treat my strawberries the same as briar.

Absolutely! Love and use them on a regular basis. Fountain pens can get out of hand very quickly. Vintage and modern, there is always one, or fifteen, more that I need. I don't know why I need them, but I know that I do!Oh no, you do pens too?

No, it's not just you. I say if it puts ink on paper, it's worthwhile. WWII era and earlier pens, in my experience, are some great writers. But that rabbit hole can go very deep. Modern pens as well. Always something new coming out and things you haven't caught up with over the past few years. A member on here VERY generously gave me what amounts to an entire collection. It is, truly, a world of it's own.Glad it’s not just me.
I have a few but nothing your level Im sure. I have a few vintage some from WWII but mostly modern.
YepWow, this thread went completely the wrong way.
It was what he got @'ed about I bet.Well, there is one guy in particular who smokes a lot of the same stuff I love and has very nice taste in pipes but he doesn't like being @'ed , I respect that, It takes all kinds. I will add that we also both prefer to smoke toothless
my lips are sealedIt was what he got @'ed about I bet.
If anything, WAYS has discouraged my buying, sort of a desensitization. I've not really seen anything there that I would buy. It's one of the bigger contributors to the decline of my interest in the Savinelli 904s. When I started collecting them they rarely ever popped up here but then a couple of members started chasing them and my fascination with them waned.Do you ever scroll through WAYS and think, "Dang, so-and-so consistently has pipes that I might buy if I could.
Did you see the Luisa Fiammata line of 904's ? , something about set-aside stummels , might be good to end the collection with a limited ED?If anything, WAYS has discouraged my buying, sort of a desensitization.

fishbanjoWho was the Gentleman that posted a pipe in his collection every day before he passed? He had some fabulous meers. Forget his name...
Too expensive for me for a factory pipe when I've had Giubileo d'Oro 904s and 9004s for less. I got rid of all of them but one a couple of years ago but recently picked up a couple of them just because of interesting fittings. Really too small for me to hold now though.Did you see the Luisa Fiammata line of 904's ? , something about set-aside stummels , might be good to end the collection with a limited ED?
