In my view every pipe smoker should own a Billiard, Dublin, Apple, Rhodesian, Bulldog and a Lovat almost forgot the Brandy. You may be asking why those particular shapes? Simple, they are my favorites and when a real artisan makes one, you know it. There is just something about the basics that makes me want them. I have no logical reason, just my particular tastes.
I don't do fish or whales or a plethora of other shapes. I like my pipes to look like a pipe and not some weird shape from a sci fi movie.
