Good Cheap Pipe

[crashthegrey]

Kaywoodie are great pipes in that price range with a lot of variations available. For what it's worth, I have quite a few customers in the UK.

Here's one for under 12 GBP. They have a big selection of store brand pipes.

Mysmokingshop Wellbent Standard System Rustic Bent Briar Pipe

The Mysmokingshop Wellbent bent pipe very similar in style to a Peterson Standard System pipe.Finished in a dark rustic brown shade and fitted with an old fashioned nickel mount and moulded plastic mouthpiece.A great every day pipe.Measures 140mm long.Bowl internally measures 18mm diameter and 37mm

Looks like it might be from the “Irish thirds” line. I’d bet they smoke fine once broken in.

I’ll second that. I saw your table full of them at the capital land show. Some of them were pretty nice looking, and made by a reputable company. A good number for less than fifty bucks too.

Corncob pipe is cheap with great performance.

If you want brair pipes. Then you can try stanwell or savinelli pipes.

My opinion: If you never try a cheap stuff, then you will never know why the good stuff is "good".

In the UK, a corncob costs from £12 (eg Country Gentleman) to about £28 for something more fancy.

A Falcon (stem and bowl) is roughly £30

What other makes are reasonably good first pipe up to around the £30 mark?

Not interested in estate pipes. I think that is more of a US thing than a European thing.

This is just more of my research in case anyone asks. The answers may help somebody.

Thanks

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned here but I’m in the same boat. I’d like a pipe that’s quality, is ok to look at, feels good in hand, & ,most importantly, smokes great.
I bought my first pipe about 6 months ago; a Rossi Antico bent billiard. They’re Savinelli seconds, so they’re quality, but about $20-40 (US) less. Couldn’t be happier with it honestly. It’s a great starter pipe & will make most anything you smoke through it taste as it should.

Missouri Meerschaum Hardwood pipes are good smokers for a low price. Unsure if they are available in the UK.

Yep agreed, freely available from numerous online stores and some B&Ms

On the smoke.Co.uk website, people here recomended Barber B line. Which look quite nice.

Also on the website and cheaper still were Sarome pipes. I take it Barber B line is the better option. (or are they ok)?

Dr. Grabow is hard to beat for the price point you are looking for. Handmade in NC with good briar in a multitude of shapes.

Good luck with your search!

For the heck of it I snagged a NOS Kaywoodie for not much because I loved the shape and to see what one is all about! Will report after this weekend (unless it arrives by Thursday, lol).
