Nosewarmers

[porshcigar]

How do you feel about the nosewarmer pipe? I love them. I like the feel in the hand, especially the "chubby" style, that has a bowl as big as a regular pipe, but has a short stem. My chubbies seem to hold as much tobacco as a big pipe, but they are good in the mouth. I tend to clench a pipe between my teeth, like when I am at the computer, and the chubby seems to be easier on the teeth. And I feel more secure putting a chubby in my coat pocket. I have less fear of it falling out, and less fear of snapping the stem when I sit. All in all, a good pipe to smoke when doing something more than just smoking a pipe.

I have been hearing a lot of people saying they love nose warmers. I think I have one pipe that would qualify, and I love it.

Oh! Pipes. I was totally misreading that subject line. As you were.

*ahem* Concerning members of the fairer sex. I figured out what you meant, but pipes weren't my first thought.

But to say on topic, I'm finding that I'm enjoying a bent pipe a bit more these days, only the smoke tends to get in my eyes, but the "slipstream" of smoke is nice in the nose. Adds to the experience well. But the bit in the eyes vexes me. Don't have that issue with my straights. Wonder if maybe an even shorter straight would worth toying with. or smoke near a fan. hehe

Just in case anyone is curious or interested, the actual name for a nose warmer is Brucianaso. Most everyone calls them nose warmers, but I figured I would throw that bit of info out there in case anyone who doesn't know, will know if the real name is ever used.

Bob those pipes are sweet looking. I am quickly coming down w/PAD.

I might have to limit my time on the site, its killing me to see all these beautiful pipes and all that tabacky out there for me to try.

Nothing like Fraternal twins.

Good idea about the churchwarden.

Be sure to show-em' off.

I broke out my Holme's and Watson "nose warmers".

I thought I'd color em up a little for the next few days.

I've found I don't particularly like "bowl smoke". I'm leaning towards a John Holmes Commemorative Churchwarden model.

I got the whole "smoke in the eyes" yesterday and while it was annoying, I did enjoy where the smoke got to before my eyes.... The little bit of smoke that went up the nose while smoking my royal danish nose warmer was actually very pleasant.
