I usually keep things around a dozen. Pieces move in and out of my collection, but I really don't prefer to have a lot of pipes.

I'm getting ready to move, and so right now all but three of my pipes are in boxes. Honestly, haven't missed but one or two of 'em.

I currently have 20 briars, a dozen cobs and one ThePipe. I gave a few other briars to my son to seed his collection and have a box of about 40 more ready to ship to SPC when I get time.

Had to count..54 briars with 20-30 in rotation, half of those smoked more often.

My collection stays right around 100 with half of those being in smoking rotation at any one time. I’m probably just over that total # now, but have been earmarking “to be sold” and there are about 8 in that category. I have 1 meer, 1 cob and 1 clay - the rest are briars. Other than acquiring a morta pipe, only looking to add high end bargains at this point.

I have been consolidating for a few years and now have around:
75-80 briars
4 cobs
3 Kirsten system pipes
3 meerschaum
2 clays
1 calabash
As far as what I actually smoke, I actively about smoke 20 of the briars and 2 of the cobs. I have some more thinning to do, I want to get to about 18 pipes total.

I wish I didn't have so many. About half the number would be right. However, I can't pick out half that I don't want to keep, so here I am. It does dampen my PAD to a degree. Also, I have real enthusiasm for pipes that are not expensive, so that tends to expand the rack somewhat. And I have some up-market (to me) treasures too.
