I broke my new Radice in nicely and carefully but I am still trying to get use to the wide open draw and very small button. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
It is the pipe shown above.

bersekero, try altering the way you pack the tobacco into the chamber until you get the draw that feels right for you. If you're finding the current drilling too "open" you'll need to pack the tobacco a little tighter.

I'm a huge Radice fan. IMHO they are very consistent with their stem work.

Attached are my two Radice Pipes. The Lovat was made in 2021. It was a series celebrating Briar Blues 25th year in business. The hawk bill is very special, to me. This past Spring we visited their workshop. While sitting I was digging through my bag trying to find a pipe to smoke and found, that for the first time ever, I did not have a pipe with me, so Marzio went into the workshop and handed the hawkbill to me. It was made with a recently acquired large number of briar blocks that had been aging for 30 plus years. rad2.jpgrad1.jpg
