I had the blasted horn shape for awhile. I recently decided to let it go to a new home. Its a fantastic little pipe but the size was just too small for me. For those wanting a small bowl, the quality to price is tough to beat.

I like mine just fine. The bowl is bigger than you might expect for such a light pipe.
It fits easily into a pocket so it's great to carry around.

I definitely prefer smaller and lighterweight pipes, and have also been eyeballing one of these Stanwell featherweight's.. There are quite a few i like.. may have to pull the trigger sooner than later..
I have a Stanwell Vario #243 which is basically a featherweight with partial sandblast. It's my favorite pipe to smoke in the workshop. It's so light and hangs just right. Plus, the stem is acrylic so it is more resilient to clenching. I had a Stanwell Featherweight Red #243 but I sold it because the stain bled too much and it annoyed me. I think you will be pleased with the pipe you ordered. Stanwell makes arguably the best factory pipe for the money, IMHO.
Yep. Just had a "perfect pipe" in it a minute ago. No gurgle, no nothing, just sublime smokin'.mrjerke I have what looks like that exact same pipe you posted and I love everything about it except the way it smokes.
It's probably my fault, but I haven't had a good smoke out of it yet. It's one of my "gurglers."
We live and we learn, yea?
