The 920s are sharp. I like the 904/914/9004/9005s better because of their slight rarity in the lines, and Dad was smoking one the last time I saw him before he passed away. How many 920s do you have?All due respect @chasingembers , but I think I’m liking this 920 as well if not better than the ol’ 904s.
Well those are rather good reasons. It is a fine shape. This is my first 920, bought it on sale (REALLY on sale) a while back and just now got around to sparking it up. It is unlikely that it will be the last, as I quite like it.The 920s are sharp.

I cleaned a 920 up a few years ago and gave Tom (pipesmokingtom) a big surprise.?Well those are rather good reasons. It is a fine shape.

I bought this one for aros, may have to get one for VA based and english blends as well.
