Show Us Your Best Smoker(s)

[bobpnm]

Bradley, you have the biggest pipes I have ever seen!

Very cool Stanwell, samcoffeeman. Thanks for posting the pic. I really like those mid-century/60's modern-style Danish pipes.

Like Harris, all of my pipes smoke very well and they don't stay long if they don't. But, the two that are the cream of a good crop are:
James Upshall P Bent Dublin

1930's Comoys 499 Extraordinaire - George Dibos did a tuneup on this pipe and it just flat out is amazing to smoke.

My best smokes these days are coming from my Comoys.
Comoy's pre-war Extraordinaire bullcap.

Comoy's Old Bruyere No.4.

Comoy's Blue Riband No.409.

Thanks for that info, fishnbanjo and for sharing a photo of your very rare pipe. I'll have to add Julie's book to my list of ones to look out for.

I smoke English/Balkan blends for a change of pace but I'm partial to flakes, so it's no wonder that I love these two Wileys, which have conical bowls.

I know Storient has been an infamous topic of late, but that looks like a nice meer from here

Ya the long wait and shitty business practice aside, It's a good pipe.

I'd also like to add this. It's a Stanwell, and I don't know anything about it. It's been a long time since I'v smoked it, I'll have to fire it up once my mouth heals.

These are two of my favorites. Top is an old GBD Prodigy Cragstone. I picked it up at an antique store in the 90's. The bottom is a Savinelli Autograph that I won on eBay a few years back.
I know, I have some work to do on those stems...

 

[pitchfork]

Those are nice Wileys, troutface. Thanks for sharing the pics.

 

[fishnbanjo]

Smoking some 2005 Escudo in the Tom Eltang Tribute to Bo Nordh Ballerina and this pipe was the other I had for consideration!

 

[dukdalf]

Wow, fisnbanjo, that is one beautiful pipe!

 

[plet]

Kashmir I love your pipes!!!

 

[kashmir]

Thanks plet!

 

[fishnbanjo]

Thank you dukdalf.

 

[troutface]

Thanks pitchfork. I'm breaking in a Galleon at the moment.

 

[pitchfork]

troutface, my one Wiley is a Galleon (I really like his rustication), but I have to say that Wiley's briar smokes as sweet as any I have. I don't know if it's the briar itself, the oil-curing process, or both, but the one I have is great for English blends.

Without question, my consistently best smoker would be the Baki meer in my avatar.

 

[fishnbanjo]

Another contender would be this and I'm smoking Blue Note in my Jess Chonowitsch 2 knuckle Bamboo Billiard
