I am seriously considering purchasing a Savenilli St. Nicholas 2020. So for those who have taken the plunge, what are your thoughts on the pipe? Was it what you expected? Would you recommend it? I am leaning towards the 606 KS. Any input, good or bad, would be much appreciated.

Buy ten cobs instead.

Joking aside, you can’t go wrong with any sav, one of my favorite briars

 

[highwaycobbery]

Save your money and go for a Miele if you don’t have one, one of my best smoking briars, hand made, perfect smoke every time

I have the 2016 St. Nicolas 606 and it's my best smoking pipe. The drilling is perfect and takes a pipe cleaner with no problems. If I were you I'd buy it.

OMG... I want the bent billiard. I don't think you can go wrong with a Savinelli

Oh yeah, I have my eye on that one too.

It's a Savinelli, can't imagine anything bad to say about them. My choice would be that 614.

I'll take a look at that one.

It's a great full bent, just has Santa Claus written all over it.

I like it. It will go well with Watch City's Christmas blend. I have my calendar marked for the latest releases. A lot of great blends out there, but I keep reaching for Ernie's blends.

Personally not a fan of the white stem but my 606KS Bianca is a champion smoker.

It hangs effortlessly in the clench and is great for reading or typing, IMO.

I bought the Savinelli Oscar Lucite 614 last year. It's okay but I wish I had bought another 606. Here's the 614 I have

I purchased a 602 this year... I like the brass accents and pearlescent white acrylic stem. I haven’t smoked it yet, but it’s of similar quality to my other Saint Nichols pipes. The green one below is a 606KS (2018), and it’s an excellent overall pipe ?

As others have said I don’t think you can go wrong. Good pipes!

616 here. Smokes great with no filter or adapter. Draw is a little tight with the filter, but that’s a non-issue for me since I’m not a filter fan anyhow. I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Great pipe.

I decided to let my wife pick the pipe. Pulled the trigger on the 606.

I like the 2019, w/the red... ?

Shingling makes great smoking pipes, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
