I bought a barely smoked estate Cavicchi last week off of eBay. This is a first for the maker and also a first for Italian made pipes in general for me.
I'm impressed. I've only smoked a handful of bowls through this pipe and it's already amongst my favorite pipes thus far. After a few Peterson purchases (I like the look) I did not feel like I got my money's worth with it's nice to feel like I got a stellar pipe this time for the money spent even if it is a higher amount.
The only complaint I have is the weight. It's not unreasonable by any means for a pipe this substantial but it is on the heavy side for me. I clench all day. Fair trade though for such a pleasant tasting and smoking pipe. Not bad on the eyes either.
Here's to hoping it's all up hill from here!
