Now smoking Smoker’s Pride Mellow Taste in the very first pipe I ever bought ($2.49) in 1974; a smooth three quarter bend Dr. Grabow Omega military mount with a nickel band and a black vulcanite stem with a p-lip. Getting ready to do some walking reps.
How have you kept your first pipe in service? Just maintenance, or did you at some point or another have to have it cleaned up vis-a-vis an estate pipe? I have a Chacom Army from about 15 years ago, and I worry about keeping it in service (I've never been able to find a backup).

Just regular maintenance. I clean my pipes every day.
