I had Jirsa a few weeks ago and was impressed with how well it was made.

Tim West is always a winner too!

Welcome to the site. Both are very nice looking pipes. If they are group 4-6 in bowl size I would be smoking Virginia and Virginia/Perique flakes in them. Whatever you choose, I hope they both smoke great for you. Congrats.

Welcome to the site. Those are fine looking pipes.

Well said.
If you let us know what types of tobacco you have tried thus far, maybe some of us can make a recommendation or 30.
